LONDON, March 25 (Reuters) - Britain is in constant contact
with the manufacturers of its vaccines to understand and address
any potential pinch points in supply, a spokesman for the health
department said on Thursday.
"From the outset we have been clear that supply will vary
over time, but we remain on course to offer a first vaccine to
over 50s by mid-April and all adults by the end of July," the
spokesman said, when asked about AstraZeneca's delivery
schedules of shots to Britain.
"We are confident in our vaccine supplies and are in
constant contact with the manufacturers to understand and
address any potential pinch points."
