Over 30 million people in the UK have now had a first Covid vaccine dose.
Government figures show 30,151,287 have had a first dose – around 57% of all UK adults – after more than 600,000 were done on Saturday.
A total of 3,527,481 people have had two doses – 6% of adults.
Ministers remain confident that all over-50s will have been offered a first dose by 15 April. The government aims to offer all adults a jab by the end of July.
The 30 million threshold was passed as 3862 new coronavirus cases and 19 deaths were reported on Sunday – down from 5,312 and 33 a week ago.
The UK has planned to ensure everyone gets their second dose on time – in the 12-week timeframe, said a government minister on Sunday.
That means many in the older age groups will be fully vaccinated in the coming weeks.
MODERNA VAACINE
The UK is also expecting its first batch of Moderna jabs next month, which could see the vaccine rollout expanded to those aged between 40 and 49.
In all, the UK has ordered 17 million doses of the Moderna jab, 100 million doses of Oxford-AstraZeneca, and 40 million of BioNTech/Pfizer.
