The Prime Minister is set to hold a Downing Street press conference this evening at 5pm, to give the nation an update on the country’s second coronavirus lockdown.
The address to the nation comes after pharmaceutical company Pfizer announced its coronavirus vaccine candidate is more than 90% effective in preventing Covid-19 during a major trial.
The UK is set to receive 10 million doses of the vaccine by the end of the year, should it be approved by regulators.
Mr Johnson is also expected to focus on the UK’s testing regime, expanding on the testing trial currently taking place in Liverpool to a further two or three locations in England.
