The Public Accounts Committee has published a report on the government’s approach to buying and rolling out coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccines. The Committee commends the government’s ‘world beating’ progress. However, it also warns that there is ‘much to be done’ to respond to changes in the pandemic and meet the government’s targets, particularly considering supply issues. The Committee calls for the government to establish plans for adapting the vaccine programme by the end of April 2021.
