Teams administered 3.4 million doses last week, taking the total to 25 million since September.

Dr Julie Yates, deputy director of immunisation programmes at the UK Health Security Agency, urged anyone who is eligible to have the free jabs.

She said: "It's great to see we're boosting people's immune systems against winter viruses in time for Christmas, with five jabs going in arms every second. It takes around two weeks for you to get optimum protection once vaccinated. We tend to see flu and Covid-19 circulating at higher levels over this period.
