24 December 2020 • 12:02am Tony Blair has called for people to be given just one Covid-19 vaccine dose to speed up roll out Credit: ANDY RAIN/EPA-EFE/Shutterstock SIR – Hearing Tony Blair on Radio 4 yesterday recommending that the over-80s are not given their second vaccinations made me hugely thankful that he is not prime minister anymore.

SIR – Mr Blair suggests that, rather than keeping back half the current supply of vaccine in order to give people a second dose, it should all be used to give more people a first dose. He thinks this will still provide some protection.
