Matt Hancock: 'Vaccine take-up higher than Government predicted'
The vaccine programme is currently being expanded to the over-65s and younger people in at-risk categories. Mr Hancock said: “It’s a real success, the team have absolutely blown it out of the park. “There is no rest for the wicked and we are straight on to the next groups. “So the letters have already been sent to over a million over-65s asking them to come forward, and also the next group after that is those who have underlying health conditions and are carers. “There is a huge programme under way rolling out to invite the next group of people to be vaccinated.
