Hundreds of vaccine supporters will take to the streets of major cities in England to promote the take of the Covid-19 booster vaccine.

Nearly 900 people will distribute flyers in popular areas such as Brighton Pier, Liverpool One and Kings Cross every day until Christmas on behalf of NHS England.

They hope to spread awareness about the new alternative to coronavirus, Omicron, and encourage every adult in the UK to get a booster shot of the vaccine before Christmas.

The government has also provided an additional £22.5 million to boost vaccination in the 60 local authorities with the lowest uptake of the vaccine.

The Community Vaccines Champion will organize information events across local authorities and set up pop-up vaccination centers in places of worship.

Health and Welfare Minister Sajid Javid said the government was doing everything it could to “get blows in the arms”.

“We are in a race between the virus and the vaccine and we are doing everything we can to get punches in arms as quickly as possible,” he said.

“We are calling on people for support now as part of our national mission to strengthen our wall of defense against the rapid spread of Omicron.

“I would like to thank the thousands of people who have heroically come forward to support our vaccine campaign. We are all in this together – please play your part.”

Business Minister Kwasi Quarting urged the public to roll up their sleeves to help businesses over Christmas.

Writing in the Sunday Express, he said: “The more people who are stabbed, the more protection we have.

“The higher the protection, the faster Covid-19 will be overcome.

“The faster we beat the virus, the faster our economy will recover, and companies can get back to doing what they are doing better.

“Give the best gift you can get this Christmas, and get support now.”

It comes as NHS England set records in consolidation, with 740,775 on Friday and 739,867 on Thursday.
