The Metro’s lead reports that thousands of Covid vaccine “sceptics” have “changed their minds” and been “queuing round the block” for a jab in areas worst hit by the surge of the Indian variant. More than 6,200 people were vaccinated over the weekend in Bolton – where the B.1.617.2 variant is now dominant. Health Secretary Matt Hancock is quoted as saying that most people in hospital in Bolton with this variant had been eligible for a jab but had chosen not to have it.
