England’s autumn vaccination campaign for flu and COVID-19 booster is set to begin in 11 days, about a month earlier than planned because of a new variant of COVID-19, the government said on Wednesday.
Health Minister Maria Caulfield said it “makes sense” to bring forward the campaign so the most vulnerable can be more protected.
