Leaked documents say the NHS are hopeful that two vaccines for Covid-19 will be available before the end of the year despite human trials not yet being completed.
It is understood officials have been drawing up plans to ensure the vaccine is given to those at the top of the priority list with Trainee nurses, physiotherapists and paramedics will be deployed alongside the military to ensure the vaccination sites can treat tens of thousands of people each day.
According to a National newspaper the documents show major cities including London, Leeds and Hull have been earmarked as vaccination sites along with hundreds of mobile units scattered across the country.
Vaccination teams are also expected to visit care homes to administer the vaccine.
A Government spokesperson is quoted in the Mirror Online: “The Government will do everything needed to roll out a successful vaccine quickly and safely.
“An enormous amount of planning and preparation has already taken place including ensuring we have adequate provision, transport, PPE and logistical expertise.
“We are working closely with the NHS and we will use the military in the planning of logistics as necessary, as they have already gone to great lengths to successfully support our operational efforts.”
