England has launched its Covid-19 booster vaccination campaign, the National Health Service (NHS) said, after officials and the government gave the go-ahead for the programme earlier in the week.

“It is brilliant to see that the first booster jabs are being rolled out today,” health minister Sajid Javid was quoted as saying by Reuters.

“I urge everyone who is eligible to come forward for their booster when invited, to prolong the protection that the vaccine offers those most at risk as we approach the winter months.”
