COVID-19 Data Dive: ‘Second-dose debt’ means a wait for millions

COVID-19 Data Dive: 'Second-dose debt' means a wait for millions

The COVID-19 vaccination programme is about to become a victim of its own success.

‘Second-dose debt’ – the requirement that everyone who receives a first dose should get a second within 12 weeks – will mean millions will have to wait for their jabs.
