The scientific committee overseeing Britain's coronavirus vaccination programme on Friday recommended that under-40s are offered an alternative to the Oxford-AstraZeneca Covid jab.

In this file photo taken on January 26, 2021 A posed photograph taken as an illustration shows syringes arranged around a used vial of the Oxford/AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine at the vaccination centre set up inside Brighton Centre in Brighton, southern England. – A British trial of the AstraZeneca coronavirus vaccine on children has been paused, Oxford University said on APril 6, 2021, as global regulators rush to assess its possible link to rare blood clots in adults.

This will happen as long as an alternative is available and does not create a substantial delay in vaccination, and as long as the UK keeps its virus situation under control, he added. June Raine, who heads the UK’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency, said it was not changing its advice on the AstraZeneca vaccine as side effects were “extremely rare”.
