00:07COVID inquiry report, with more than 132 million doses delivered in 2021. Researchers estimate it
00:15helped save hundreds of thousands of lives. Baroness Hallett praised the programme as one
00:21of the key success stories of the pandemic, also highlighting the rapid development of effective
00:26treatments. However, the report warns that vaccine confidence has fallen in some communities,
00:32particularly in areas of higher deprivation and among ethnic minority groups. It says trust must
