That's really annoying, but I wonder what the story behind those no-shows was? Being care home staff, is it possible that circumstances with their patients dictated that they couldn't come along?
Maybe they tried to contact the centre about the situation but couldn't?
I wouldn't assume they were just being lackadaisical.
I have heard of similar cases in which the excess vaccines were used up by calling others on the list, which seems emminently sensible if it can be arranged.

I don't know any more of the details but anecdotally i've heard of some people not wanting it in case they have some of the (mild) side effects and miss a shift which they won't get paid for, especially agency staff. They'll all end up having to get it to work for the reputable care providers anyway so it'll sort itself out.
