Food delivery and taxi-hailing companies in the UK are to offer discounted lifts and meals for customers who get a Covid-19 jab to help boost vaccine uptake, the British government has announced.
Uber, Bolt, Deliveroo and Pizza Pilgrims are among the brands who will be offering incentives to encourage younger people to get vaccinated.
The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) said taxi app firm Uber will be sending reminders to all users in August encouraging them to get jabbed.
The company will offer discounted Uber trips and meals on its Uber Eats platform for young adults who receive a vaccine. Uber has previously offered free trips to vaccination centres for NHS staff.
