The vaccine rollout in the UK continues to pick up pace.

Over 50s can now book to receive their Covid-19 vaccination.

Vaccinating this age group means that the top nine priority groups will all have received their first jab.

The two jabs are spread 12 weeks apart so the most vulnerable will soon start to receive their second dose.

The government's target for vaccinating the over 50s was mid-April but that should be met early thanks to the speed at which NHS workers and volunteers have been delivering them.

Every adult should be vaccinated by July.

You can book your vaccine on the NHS website
