New Delhi, Aug 31 (PTI) An anti-cancer jab that can cut down treatment time for some by three quarters has been rolled out by National Health Service (NHS) England, the UK’s publicly funded healthcare system.
The jab takes as little as 7 minutes to administer, NHS England said in a statement, adding that it will be the first health system in the world to roll out the seven-minute injection to hundreds of NHS cancer patients each year.
The vaccine has been approved by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), the statement said.
