The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) publishes weekly data for COVID-19 vaccine uptake in England by age and gender. A table showing provisional data on the cumulative number of people vaccinated with any dose of COVID-19 vaccine in the last three months, three to to six months and vaccinated more than six months ago as of 15 December is attached.
The information on booster doses is not held in the format requested. However, the following table shows the provisional cumulative number of people vaccinated by age group with a booster dose of COVID-19 vaccine in England from 1 September 2022 to 15 December 2022. Data on the autumn booster programme is reported for those aged 50 years old and over, as those aged under 50 years old are only eligible if in a clinical risk group.
