An extra 100 million Covid-19 jabs will be given to the world by the UK, Boris Johnson has announced as part of a drive to vaccinate the globe by the end of 2022.
The 100 million doses will be distributed over the next year, with five million issued by October and 25 million sent out by the end of 2021.
It is part of a new push by the G7 world leaders at their summit in Cornwall to collectively give away a billion doses of Covid-19 vaccines to other countries.
America alone is giving 500 million. Leaders from the other nations present - Italy, Canada, France, Germany and Japan - are expected to announce their own new commitments.
