Johnson and Johnson's single-shot coronavirus vaccine could be targeted at Britons living in Indian variant hotspots who have so far refused a jab, according to reports. One of the benefits of the vaccine is that it only takes three weeks following injection to achieve full protection. Britain has ordered 30million doses of J&J's vaccine, but these are not expected to start arriving until mid-summer. More than 36.5million Britons - or two in three adults - have received at least one dose of the Covid vaccine. There are fears that vaccine hesitancy is behind the rapid spread of the Indian Covid variant.
