AstraZeneca, the maker of the Oxford vaccine, said they hope the new vaccine will be ready by the autumn.
MHRA chief executive Dr June Raine said there is no evidence that routine vaccination lacks efficacy against known coronavirus changes.
She said: ‘Since December last year we have all been concerned about the appearance of changes – Kent, South Africa, Brazil recently – so we are prepared to check, when necessary, updates to ensure that the vaccines in use in citizens are fully effective.
Our goal is to ensure that future immunization changes in line with the new variables are available in the shortest possible time but without any side effects. on safety, quality and efficiency.

Britain’s vaccination campaign is accelerating, with Matt Hancock revealing on Friday that two out of five adults have been vaccinated because deaths are falling ‘faster and faster’.
Some 21.3 million people have received their first dose, and the historic spread means that deaths have fallen 41 percent in a week.
The Health Secretary said: ‘You can really see the impact of the vaccine in the number of deaths.
‘That link from cases to hospitals and then deaths that couldn’t be broken before the vaccine came is now breaking.
‘The vaccine protects the NHS and saves lives, across the country.’
The positive figures on Friday sparked new profiteering about building the lock, and whether the roadmap could be accelerated.
Ministers have repeatedly insisted that the timetable will not be spun, but with each week of progressive data the pressure is mounting for a quicker end to the constraints.
More than a million people have now received both doses of Covid-19 vaccine, meaning 2 per cent of UK adults are fully vaccinated.
