Coronavirus vaccine bookings reached a record high of more than one million on the NHS website yesterday after they were opened up to people aged 25 to 29.
It is the first time daily appointments made through the national booking service have topped one million. The figure averages out at more than 750 a minute over 24 hours.
A total of 1,082,596 first and second dose slots were booked online and by phone.
The daily total for the National Booking Service yesterday was around four times higher compared with the day before and the same day last week.
Separate official figures suggested around eight in ten adults in most areas of the UK are now likely to have Covid-19 antibodies.
