London anticipates third dose of covid vaccine. The government will allow citizens to receive the booster dose 5 months – and not 6 – after the conclusion of the ordinary course of vaccination. The goal, writes the Guardian, is to reduce the pressure on the health service and hospitals as winter approaches. It is unclear whether the new directive will only apply to England or whether it will be extended to the whole of the United Kingdom. In any case, for millions of people, the third dose is destined to arrive early. Across the Channel 12 million third doses have already been administered, but the process – according to the health system – must be streamlined and speeded up.
