Britain to offer COVID vaccinations to vulnerable children aged 5-11 – The Peninsula Qatar

LONDON: Britain will this week begin offering vaccinations to children aged between five and 11 who are most at risk from coronavirus, the state-run National Health Service said on Sunday.

Britain has been slower than some other countries in offering the shots to 5-11 year olds, and is not planning to vaccinate the age group more broadly.
