It should be noted that the regulatory approval for Pfizer BioNTech vaccine was given last Wednesday, sparking the quick and immediate set up of vaccination centres across the country.

The UK was reported to have ordered 40 million doses of the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine enough for the vaccination of over 20 million people with 800,000 people in the first batch.

The British Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, has now described the vaccination process as a huge step taken by the UK towards defeating the coronavirus pandemic. “Huge step forward in the UK’s fight against coronavirus”.
