A sixth coronavirus jab which may be more effective for longer has been approved for use in the UK by health officials. The Covid vaccine developed by Valneva was given regulatory approval by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).
The UK is the first in the world to approve the vaccine. It has been approved for use in people aged 18 to 50 years, with the first and second doses to be taken at least 28 days apart.The jab developed by the French firm, which has a factory in Livingston near Edinburgh, is the sixth Covid-19 vaccine to be granted an MHRA authorisation.
