Millions of people will be eligible for Covid-19 vaccinations as younger children are able to receive a jab. Older people are also starting to get a fourth jab.
The NHS has urged people to check if they are eligible for a vaccine, which is the best way to protect yourself from the virus, the Mirror reports. The dominant strain is Omicron, which has milder effects in most people.
Even though cases have been dropping and vaccines have kept infection rates down, NHS chiefs have now urged parents to arrange for their five and six-year-olds to receive a shot. The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) says all young people will benefit from a jab.
