Vaccine group: Which vaccine group am I in?

Three Covid-19 vaccines have now been approved for use in the UK.

It means a lot of people are asking: 'When will I get the Covid vaccine?', 'what are the groups for the Covid vaccine?' and 'who is classed as extremely clinically vulnerable?'.

Immunisations with the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine and Oxford-AstraZeneca began on 8th December and 4th January for those in priority groups.

Shots of the Moderna vaccine will not arrive until Spring 2021.

Margaret Keenan, 91, was the first person in the UK to be given the Covid jab.

BBC health reporter Laura Foster explains who is first to get the shot and why.
