Covid: London must ‘supercharge’ vaccine race

One of the UK’s top medics has told the Evening Standard that the vaccine rate must be “supercharged”. Over the weekend, more than 50,000 covid jabs were administered in London - but 42,000 of those were boosters. It’s thought that up to 2.7 million people in the city are unvaccinated. The Evening Standard’s Political Editor, Nicholas Cecil, explains what this all means, if Plan A is still on track and whether or not people should start to worry about Christmas.
