Doctors in the US are concerned about the level of vaccine-fatigue across the country.

American households are once again able to order free at-home Covid-19 tests, as the government attempts to limit the spread of the virus this winter.

The test programme was paused in September, but restarted yesterday as cases start to spike again.

But, US Correspondent Dan Mitchinson says there seems to be some Covid-fatigue out there.

He says doctors were hoping 70 percent of the population would be vaccinated, but levels are far below that ... and only half the population has had a flu jab.
