On 29 November 2021, we announced updated advice that all individuals aged 18 years old and over will be eligible for a COVID-19 booster vaccination. This includes participants in the AstraZeneca vaccine trials. Trial participants for a COVID-19 vaccine which has since been approved, such as AstraZeneca, can access a booster dose from any vaccine centre when invited to do so.
