UK regulator approves Moderna Covid-19 vaccine

BRITAIN today approved a third Covid-19 vaccine for its mass inoculation drive, as regulators gave the green light to a jab developed by US firm Moderna.

Some 1.5 million people have been given doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech or Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccines since early December, and the government is aiming to have 15 million inoculated by mid-February.
