UK To Launch COVID-19
Vaccine Drive, Starting Tuesday.
Britain's push to safeguard its citizens from the
coronavirus will be the largest national vaccination
effort in the country's history.
Health care workers will be assisted in the vaccinations
by tens of thousands of volunteers and military.
U.K. officials aim to vaccinate more than
20 million people across its four nations.
It is the first mass vaccination project against
COVID-19 in the Western world.
Logistical efforts to push the inoculations
have been hampered by the low temperature
storage requirements of the vaccine.
Temporary vaccination sites will be set up in
sports stadiums, drive-thru locations
and other public buildings.
Vaccination effort will likely begin
in E.U. nations by the end of the week.
Russia began its own vaccination push over the weekend.
In the U.S., the Food and Drug Administration
will likely approve the Pfizer vaccine
by the end of the week.
