When asked earlier this week whether coronavirus vaccinations could be offered 24/7 to speed up the rollout, the message from Downing Street was that they believed there was ‘no clamour’ for appointments beyond 8pm.
This morning the Department of Health said it was considering a pilot scheme for 24/7 vaccines at some locations, aimed at NHS workers rather than the general public.
Now it appears the government intends to go further - with Boris Johnson saying “we will be going 24/7 as soon as we can. ”
