France will start its COVID-19 vaccination programme next Sunday (27 December), Health Minister Olivier Veran wrote on his Twitter feed, writes Sudip Kar-Gupta.

Veran added in his Tweet on Monday that the French vaccination programme would start off with the most vulnerable members of the population, such as the elderly.

Europe’s medicines regulator on Monday (21 December) assessed the COVID-19 vaccine jointly developed by US company Pfizer and its German partner BioNTech, with a green light to put Europe on course to start inoculations within a week.
