A new single shot Covid-19 vaccine could be available by July and will be mainly used to target young millennials who might not want to wait for three months for a second dose, The Telegraph reports.
Vaccine Minister Nadhim Zahawi said UK medical regulators are now assessing the safety of the Janssen vaccine, which is made by Johnson & Johnson, formally.
It is reported that the government is hoping that the Janssen jab can be deployed among the young adults born around turn of the century as a ‘jab and go’ offering.
