Rollout of two-shot jab could begin as soon as December 7
The UK is poised to become the first western country to approve a Covid-19 vaccine, with the independent regulator set to grant approval within days.
Deliveries of the vaccine developed by BioNTech and Pfizer would begin within hours of the authorisation, according to government officials. The first injections could take place from December 7.
The UK has ordered 40m doses of the two-shot product, which preliminary data found to be more than 95 per cent effective in preventing disease.
