Covid vaccine: How many people in the UK have been vaccinated so far?

More than 47 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.

These high vaccination levels have created a "protective wall", the government has said, sufficient to end all legal restrictions on social contact.

The rollout expanded to all those aged 18 and over after the government hit its target of offering a first jab to everyone in the top priority groups - all those over the age of 50, plus those in high-risk categories - by mid-April.

The vaccine was later offered to those aged 16 and 17.

The UK's Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) has also recommended offering a jab to children aged 12-15 if they were in a higher-risk group due to certain health conditions.

Those aged 12 and over who live with people who have a suppressed immune system can also get vaccinated.

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.

The only vaccine currently approved for under-18s in the UK is Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, while people aged under 40 are being offered an alternative to the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine due to evidence linking it to rare blood clots.

Millions of the most vulnerable may also be offered a third, booster vaccination from September - if the data suggests they are needed.
