LONDON, Dec 26 (Reuters) - The United Kingdom will roll out
Oxford University’s COVID-19 vaccine from Jan. 4, according to
plans being drawn up by ministers, The Sunday Telegraph
reported.
The government hopes to give the first dose of either the
Oxford vaccine, which has been licensed to pharmaceuticals
company AstraZeneca, or the Pfizer vaccine to 2 million
people over the next two weeks, the newspaper said.
The Oxford vaccine is expected to be approved by medical
regulators in days, the newspaper said.
