Everything we know so far about fourth covid vaccine roll out

Millions of Brits can expect a fourth vaccine dose this year, according to Health Secretary Sajid Javid.

It's already the case that all 7.2million over-75s, care home residents, and 500,000 immunosuppressed adults or teenagers can get a fresh dose this spring. For most of them it will be the fourth dose, though for some vulnerable people it might be the fifth.

But while these fourth doses, due around six months after a third dose, are being rolled out in Scotland, this is yet to happen in England. The Mirror 's Health Editor Martin Bagot reports that these fourth doses to over-75s, vulnerable people and care residents could start next week.
