Covid: UK approval process for Pfizer vaccine under way - BBC News
Delivery of the Covid jab could start from December, Health Secretary Matt Hancock says.
The health secretary says that if a vaccine is approved, it will be available across the UK and will be free according to need, not ability to pay - with the earliest doses being available next month.

He says he's working with the devolved administrations to ensure it's deployed fairly to everyone across the UK - but that high-risk groups will be prioritised.

"The rollout will be a massive logistical challenge, but I know that the NHS can do it," he said.

He adds that the NHS is in the process of setting up vaccine centres across the country, which will be able to store the Pfizer vaccine at the required -70C.

The NHS is also preparing to give doses of the vaccine to hospital staff, he says.

He says these two routes for receiving the vaccine are likely to be the "bulk" of how the vaccine will be offered before the end of 2020.

After that, there will be a community rollout involving GPs and pharmacists.

Hancock says these "three delivery models" will help the vaccine to reach all parts of the country.
