10 millionth Covid vaccination recorded in Wales

2 July 2024

The Welsh Immunisation System (WIS) has now reached a huge milestone and recorded 10 million vaccinations being carried out across Wales. 

The central digital system was developed in-house by DHCW and has supported the administration of COVID-19 vaccinations since the start of the pandemic.  Health Boards use WIS to identify eligible cohorts, plan where vaccines are administered, schedule appointments and send out invites. Vaccinators use the system to record all COVID-19 vaccines administered and pharmacy colleagues record vaccine stock levels and locations. This robust system also allows flu vaccines co-administered alongside a COVID-19 vaccination to be recorded and identifies people who haven’t had their vaccination, ensuring no one is being missed and are given the opportunity to be vaccinated.
