It is seen as one and the same so we need that detail. I ask the Minister about the cohort of people that received the AstraZeneca vaccine before the recent advice on it being administered to those under 60 and under 50. As of today, approximately 7,500 healthcare workers would have been due to get the second dose as the 12 weeks is up. What is the position of that group? The suggestion is that they wait until 16 weeks but is that for all that cohort or just those under 50? What is happening with the people over 50?
