COVID-19 | U.K. prepares to vaccinate children aged 12-15
The Hindu
The United States, Canada and several European countries are already vaccinating people who are at least 12 years old.
The British government says it is preparing to vaccinate children aged 12-15 against the coronavirus, even though the inoculation campaign has not yet been approved by the country’s vaccine advisors. The Department of Health said it wants “to be ready to hit the ground running” once approval comes and be in position to deliver shots in schools when the new academic year starts in most of the country. The return of children to class in September is expected to drive up Britain’s already high coronavirus infection rate.More Related News
