The signs are looking positive for next summer’s festivals and stadium shows, after Health Secretary Matt Hancock reckoned life returning almost to normal by April. His comments came as he spoke about a COVID-19 vaccination program that could start as early as next month, following the development and successful trials of vaccines by Pfizer, Moderna and Oxford University.
“The bulk of the vaccine rollout programme will be in January, February, March, and we hope that some time after Easter things will be able to start to get back to normal,” he told BBC Breakfast.
The government have ordered 100 million doses of the Oxford vaccine, subject to being approved for public use, as well as 40 million of the Pfizer jab.
