Jan 5 (Reuters) - UK health officials have warned that
supply "delays" mean the COVID-19 vaccination programme may not
hit its target pace until the second half of this month, the
Guardian reported https://bit.ly/3hSVX6k on Tuesday.
The report added that talks are ongoing with the Medicines
and Healthcare products Regulatory Authority (MHRA) about the
need to speed up safety checks of vaccine batches, which have
taken up to 20 days, citing government sources.
