Pfizer’s approved coronavirus vaccine has been given the first 50 hospitals that will administer the jab this December - but which NHS hospitals are they?
The Covid-19 vaccine has been approved in the UK for roll out and they’ve officially revealed the first 50 hospitals that will be distributing the vaccine.
Health Secretary Matt Hancock revealed hospitals, as well as mass vaccination centres and GPs and pharmacists, will be ensuring those on the jab priority list get the coronavirus immunisation.
With the first patients getting the Pfizer immunisation this week, Professor Chris Whitty said around 20million people are in the first phase of the NHS vaccination programme including those over 50, healthcare workers, care home staff and elderly people.
