England plans biggest winter flu vaccine rollout.
Free flu vaccines will be offered this winter to children aged two to 16 in England, as well as people aged 50 and over or in "at-risk" groups, amid the double threat of Covid and influenza.
Experts hope for a record-breaking rollout reaching more than 35 million people, including more teenagers than ever before.
Last winter there was a high uptake, with 19 million doses given.
Under-16s will be offered the vaccine in nasal spray rather than as a jab.
