'Salvation for humanity': Boris Johnson says vaccine could be available in weeks
Telegraph, 01 Dec 2020
Boris Johnson defended the introduction of the tier system for England, saying it would be wrong to “take our foot off the throat of the beast”.
On a visit to pharmaceutical firm Wockhardt at their facility in North Wales, the Prime Minister said England’s lockdown had got the disease under control with the R number – a measure of how quickly the virus is spreading – below 1.
Mr Johnson says "if we"re lucky" the vaccine could be available within weeks.
