Covid vaccines: NHS jabs more than 1m children aged 12-15 in England
More than a million children between 12 and 15 years old in England have received a Covid-19 vaccine.
Who loves to สล็อตออนไลน์ Online slots should see a lot of progress made by the growth of technology.
Vaccine clinics have been held at around 3,500 schools, with 800 more to be visited next week, NHS England said.
A single dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech jab has been available to 12 to 15-year-olds since 20 September.
However, this offer came later than many European countries and the US - who began to vaccinate those age groups over the summer.
Health Secretary Sajid Javid said: "Over a million young people aged 12 to 15 have now received the crucial protection the vaccine provides.
"This is a phenomenal accomplishment and will make a huge difference in stopping Covid-19 from further disrupting their education, their health and their lives."
On Sunday a 36,517 new cases were recorded, up by more than 6,000 from the same time last week. A further 63 deaths within 28 days of a positive test were also reported.
Almost three million children aged 12 to 15 in England are eligible for one dose, NHS England has said.
The rollout to this age group came later in the UK than in some other places, after a period of controversy over approving the Pfizer-BioNTech jab vaccine for younger children.
The vaccination programme began in earnest once it was approved by the UK's chief medical officers, but much of Europe began to offer jabs to this age bracket ahead of their return to school in the autumn.
