Oxford scientists say the coronavirus vaccine they are working on could be approved, mass-produced and rolled out across the UK within six months - if not quicker.
The move would see the whole country protected against Covid-19 by Easter.
According to The Times, new rules would allow a greater number of people to administer the vaccine - speeding up the process.
There would also be drive-thru vaccination centres, with the military brought in to help
A government source told The Times: "We are looking at closer to six months and it is likely to be far shorter than that."
It is likely the elderly and vulnerable will be vaccinated first - alongside key workers such as NHS and healthcare staff.
The drug under development at Oxford University with Astrazeneca is the most advanced backed by the UK Government.
Human trials have been taking place since April.
To have everyone vaccinated in six months would take 600,000 jabs a day.
