The Government met its target of offering a first dose of the Pfizer vaccine to all 16 and 17-year-olds in England on 23 August 2021.

NHS England and NHS Improvement do not have estimated timescales or associated targets for ensuring individuals will have received at least one dose of COVID-19 vaccine, including for (a) 12 to 15-year-olds and (b) 16 to 17-year-olds.
