I'll throw everything at booster rollout says PM

BORIS Johnson announced another “Great British vaccination effort” as he called in the Army and offered GPs extra cash to get the nation triple-jabbed by the end of January.

The Prime Minister vowed to “throw everything” at the Omicron Covid variant, but with “balanced and proportionate measures”.

And he told the country to carry on celebrating Christmas, insisting there was no need to cancel parties or school nativity plays.

Mr Johnson, who will have his booster tomorrow, said temporary jab centres would be “popping up like Christmas trees”.

He said: “We’re going to be throwing everything at it in order to ensure that everyone eligible is offered that booster in just over two months.

“It’s time for another Great British vaccination effort. We’ve done it before, we’re going to do it again, and let’s not give the virus a second chance.”

At least 400 military personnel and volunteers will help the NHS and the most vulnerable will be offered a fourth jab.
