All over-50s in England are now eligible for a Covid vaccine as NHS expands roll-out to final stage

All over-50s in England are now eligible for a coronavirus vaccine, the NHS has said.

An update to the NHS England website reads everyone ‘aged 50 or over’ can sign up for an appointment to get the jab.

The over-50s are the final jab priority group, and once they have all received a first dose the drive can be expanded to younger age groups.

More than 24.4million Britons have already received their first dose of the Covid vaccine as Britain’s drive steams ahead.
