Weight loss services in Britain had expected Wegovy to hit shelves this week but have now been told there might be an indefinite delay.

The weekly jabs were approved by the NHS and the National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (Nice) had recommended the drug to tens of thousands of overweight Brits. The Daily Mail
