In Yorkshire and the Humber 65.2% of residents are fully vaccinated.
Speaking last week, Amanda Bloor, accountable officer for North Yorkshire Clinical Commissioning Group, urged people to continue to come forward to get the vaccine.
She said: “Across the NHS we would like to see people well and out of hospital, which is why the vaccination programme is continuing at pace and we are encouraging people to continue to make responsible choices to keep themselves, loved ones, and our communities safe as restrictions are lifted.”
