Rolling out Covid booster jabs to younger people could help drive down transmission of the virus to “low levels”, according to the scientist whose modelling was instrumental to the UK going into its first lockdown.
More than 11.8 million people in the UK have received a third jab, which is given to counteract the gradual waning of protection provided by the first two shots.
