Britain's Prince Charles and the UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock met NHS staff at the Chelsea & Westminster hospital on Thursday. During the visit U.K. Health Secretary Matt Hancock called on adults who had not yet received a coronavirus vaccine to book an appointment, as England opened up its programme to all those aged 18 and older. Commenting on the possibility of children getting the jab, he said that the government would be looking at "advice from clinicians on the vaccination of children in the next couple of weeks".
