THIRTY million Brits have now received the coronavirus vaccine - just over three months after the first jab was given out. 

The incredible milestone comes as the government confirmed the rollout of the Modern vaccine would see all under-50s immunized by April. 

According to the latest figures, 423,852 people received their first shot yesterday, meaning 30,151,287 Brits have now received at least their first dose. 

And 201,335 have received their second dose, taking the toll to past 3.5 million.

It comes just over fifteen weeks after 91 year old Margaret Keenan made history by being the first Brit to receive the jab on December 8.

Since that date, the UK’s immunization programmer has surged ahead - with the government smashing its target of vaccinating the four most vulnerable priority groups by mid February. 

Daily vaccinations have continued at an extraordinary pace in the past month peaking on March 20 at 753,659. 

Health secretary Matt Hancock today hailed the "phenomenal achievement", and thanked everyone who had come forward to get their jab.

The success of the rollout, combined with lockdown restrictions, has seen deaths plunge from a 7 day average of 1,280 in mid January to 64 as of March 19. 

Hospitalizations have also fallen dramatically from a peak of 4,577 on January 12 to 361 on March 20. 

The jab rollout has seen thousands of volunteers, GPs and NHS workers team up in an extraordinary national effort to beat the bug. 

Mass vaccination hubs, opened in January, have also helped to accelerate the programmer and opened in football stadiums, churches and theatres.

And should the rollout continue at its current pace, the government aims to offer all British adults a jab by the end of July.
