Why you can trust Sky News

All UK adults will be offered the first dose of a COVID vaccine by September, Dominic Raab has told Sky News.

Speaking on Sophy Ridge on Sunday, the foreign secretary said: "Our target is that by September to have offered all the adult population a first dose, if we can do it faster than that great but that's the roadmap."

The target is more specific than the government's vaccine delivery plan, published a week ago, which only said that level of protection should be hit "by the autumn".
