Starting next week, COVID-19 vaccinations will be available for purchase on the high street, with Boots becoming the first major pharmacy in England to offer this service. The vaccines will be sold for £99 each (£98 for Boots customers aged 12 and over), making them accessible to anyone over the age of 12. This move has sparked a debate on the pricing of the vaccines, with some, including Conservative MP Justine Greening, criticizing the cost as being too high. The availability of the Pfizer vaccine through Boots' pharmacies marks a significant shift in how vaccinations are distributed to the public.
“I would question the price, actually." Is it fair to charge £100 for a Covid vaccine? Conservative MP Justine Greening tells @IainDale’s panel that it's “way too much, frankly.” https://t.co/IBrJlhKWOy
