In another development, Health Minister Sajid Javid said he was “confident” that the vaccine booster program would start at the end of September.

The Medicines and Health Care Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has stated that Pfizer and AstraZeneca drugs are safe to use as boosters, but the Joint Commission on Vaccines and Immunizations (JCVI) has not yet provided advice to ministers.

New figures from Public Health England estimate that so far there have been 112,300 deaths in the UK from COVID-19 vaccination. Previous estimates had 105,900 deaths.

It comes after Health Minister Helen Whatly suggested that health and care workers who refuse to be vaccinated could move into back-office roles.

She said there are people who cannot get the vaccine for medical reasons, but those who refuse to get it could lose their jobs on the front lines.

The government has been discussing for six weeks on how to make it compulsory for front-line medical staff and medical staff to vaccinate against COVID-19 and flu.

About 92% of NHS staff received their first dose of the coronavirus jab, while 88% had a second dose.
