"The thing is now to focus on people who are in the adult age group that have been called to come forward, if you're one of those people now, come forward and get vaccinated.

"These are all good vaccines, the one that you're offered is the right vaccine for you. Come forward and get your vaccine, it is really, really important."became the first country to approve the use of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine for kids age 12 and up.
