The Times – Get Covid and Flu jab in each arm from autumn

The Times reports on plans for a Covid vaccine booster programme in the UK. Half the population will be offered a third coronavirus jab alongside the flu vaccine from September to reduce the risk of more restrictions this winter, it reports. All adults aged 50 and over will be urged to have the vaccines, which is likely to mean receiving one in each arm. Offering under-50s third doses has not been ruled out, it adds, but is less urgent.
