Quick Glance: The United Kingdom has approved the Covid Booster Vaccine, which targets two variants.
- According to a British government official, the health service would provide more information "in due course" regarding how and when eligible people can get the booster vaccine.

- Because Moderna's improved vaccination is only licensed as a booster shot, anyone who missed the initial two immunizations must receive those first, according to a British government spokeswoman.
