What did we learn from today’s briefing?
The daily press conference was given by Health Secretary Matt Hancock.
He was joined by Dr Jenny Harries, the deputy chief medical officer, and Dr Susan Hopkins from Public Health England.
Here’s what they told us:
78.7% of people over 80 have now been vaccinated, with one in nine of all adults having had their first doses
Although many people may have Covid antibodies, it’s not clear how they will work against new variants or how long protection will last
Public Health England is working with organisations across the world to predict how the vaccine might need to be adapted to new variants
But the current vaccine works well against the new UK variant, as do existing treatments like dexamethasone
There has been high uptake of the vaccine
