Boris Johnson wouldn't rule out having a Covid-19 vaccine live on TV, his press secretary has said. But he also wouldn't want to take one if it meant someone higher up the priority list would have their jab delayed.
It comes after Health Secretary Matt Hancock tentatively agreed to having his jab televised, when he does come to have it. Allegra Stratton, the Downing Street Press Secretary said she was unsure which tier of the priority list the PM was in.
But it's thought that at age 56, he would be in the sixth tier. He may be in a higher priority tier if his weight still makes him clinically obese, as he was when he was admitted to hospital with the disease earlier this year.
