Minister says there's commitment to offer doses by certain date
Booster jabs will be rolled out faster than first planned, according to the Minister for Health and Social Care.
Lawrie Hooper told Manx Radio that the government were committed to offer booster jabs "by a certain date".
He adds they were concerned with getting "jabs in arms" rather than following the UK's strategy to issue just "appointments" for shots.
This comes after the UK government announced on Sunday that it would offer booster jabs to anyone over the age of 18, with the aim of reaching as many as 1 million per day.
Booster vaccinations on Island are currently only available to those aged 45 and above:
