What does the new Covid-19 vaccine mean for the Channel Islands?
A Covid-19 vaccine has proven 90% effective in immunising against the virus.
It has been developed by US drug giant Pfizer and German biotech firm BioNTech.
According to Boris Johnson's spokesperson, the UK has procured 40 million doses, with 10 million of those expected to be available to the UK by the end of the the year.
Pfizer Covid vaccine '90% effective' - but what does this mean?
Will the Pfizer vaccine make Covid-19 history or just less dangerous?
Much like the UK, Jersey's government says it will prioritise the most "at risk" islanders. The vaccine is then expected to be gradually rolled out to the wider population through a mass vaccine centre - potential sites for this are currently being reviewed.
Meanwhile, Guernsey's government says it is continuing to prepare for when the vaccine becomes available.
