Austria's parliament is expected to approve making Covid-19 vaccinations mandatory for adults from next month, becoming the first European country to do so.

MPs from all parties, except those from the far right, are expected to vote in favour of the new law as the number of daily infections reached yet another record yesterday.

To date 72% of Austrian residents are fully vaccinated - in line with the European Union-wide average of just more than 70%t but several percentage points below regional neighbours such as Italy and France.

Tens of thousands have demonstrated against mandatory vaccination in regular weekend rallies since the measure was announced in November.
