Britain's vaccine chief said on Wednesday that she hoped to see positive interim COVID-19 vaccine data from both Oxford and Pfizer and BioNTech in early December allowing a roll out to start this year.
"If I put on my rose-tinted specs, I would hope that we will see positive interim data from both Oxford and from Pfizer/BioNTech in early December and if we get that then I think we have got the possibility of deploying by the year end," Kate Bingham, the chair of the UK Vaccine Taskforce, told lawmakers.
