The MP for Rutland has urged the Prime Minister to make sure Armed Forces personnel who've been deployed abroad don't miss out on the coronavirus vaccine.

The Prime Minister, Boris Johnson said:

"I thank the armed forces from the bottom of my heart, they've played an outstanding role throughout this pandemic.

Moving patients to hospitals from remote places, conducting testing and now playing a big role in vaccines as well.

I'm sure, like every other part of the public sector, they will be considered."
