Japan opened mass inoculation centres on Monday as it races to vaccinate most of its elderly population before the start of the Tokyo Olympics on July 23.
The centres in Tokyo and Osaka will vaccinate thousands of people every day, giving a boost to Japan s sluggish inoculation drive as the country battles a fourth wave of coronavirus infections.
