The European Union has begun a co-ordinated vaccine rollout to fight COVID-19.

BBC News reports the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine has been delivered to all 27 member states.

Some countries started administering the jabs yesterday, saying they were not prepared to wait another day.

The EU has so far reported more than 335,000 COVID-related deaths.

More than 14 million people have been infected in the EU and strict lockdown measures are currently in place in nearly all the member states.

The vaccine rollout comes as cases of the more contagious variant of COVID-19 are confirmed in several European nations as well as Canada and Japan.
