Patient engagement platform HotDoc has rolled out the ability for people aged under 40 to book a COVID-19 vaccine online within hours of the change in official government policy on Monday, and is also now allowing patients to search for an appointment based on the brand they are eligible for.

While some confusion still reigns over the official advice on whether under 40s should get the AstraZeneca vaccine, the ability to book into a general practice to do so is now available.
