ITV News published this video item, entitled “Live: Matt Hancock leads Covid press conference as vaccine milestone passed | ITV News” – below is their description.
Matt Hancock will lead a coronavirus press conference this afternoon, after the UK reached a new vaccine milestone by fully inoculating a quarter of its adult population.
The health secretary will provide an update on the UK’s battle with Covid-19 at the press conference, but he’s also likely to face questions from journalists on allegations of “Tory sleaze”.
It’s also likely he’ll talk about the worsening situation in India, after the UK sent medical packages, including ventilators, to help the country treat some of its more than 300,000 new daily Covid-19 cases.
Mr Hancock will be joined by England’s deputy chief medical officer Professor Jonathan Van-Tam and NHS England’s Dr Nikki Kanani.
