Covid vaccine: How many people are vaccinated in the UK?
More than 50 million people in the UK have received at least one dose of a coronavirus vaccine – part of the biggest inoculation programme the country has ever launched.

With almost nine in 10 of those aged 12 or over having had a single jab and eight in 10 having had a second, the country is now running an autumn booster campaign.
The vaccine rollout, which launched in winter 2020, began with those considered most vulnerable and later moved down the adult age groups.
Two doses are now also being offered to all 12 to 17-year-olds.
A booster campaign is also under way, with all those over the age of 40 qualifying.
In England, you can have a booster six months (182 days) after the second dose – although you can book it a month in advance.
So far, the UK has approved four vaccines for use: Pfizer-BioNTech, Oxford-AstraZeneca, Moderna and Janssen; three of which require two doses for maximum protection.
All those aged under 40 are being offered an alternative to the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine due to evidence linking it to rare blood clots.
The vaccine currently being used for under-18s in the UK is Pfizer-BioNTech, but the Moderna vaccine has also been authorised for use in children.
Those eligible for boosters will receive one dose of Pfizer or half a dose of Moderna.
There is no vaccine currently approved for use in the under-12s.
