The National Vaccination program will be offering the Janssen COVID-19 Vaccine as an additional vaccine, giving individuals another option to choose from, especially those who have a genuine fear of needles. This is the opportunity to become fully vaccinated with only one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, within a short space of time, especially ahead of the festive season.

\\n\\n

The Janssen COVID-19 vaccine will be available as a single primary vaccination dose for individuals 18 years and older. It can be offered as a single booster, and is also authorized for use as a mix and match booster dose following the completion of a primary series with a different COVID-19 vaccine such as Pfizer or AstraZeneca.
