But the UK government has insisted it is "confident" travel will not be affected as "no Covishield jabs have been administered in the UK". The claims involve doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine made by the Serum Institute of India - known as Covishield. “All AstraZeneca vaccines given in the UK are the same product and appear on the NHS Covid Pass as Vaxzevria. The EU Digital Covid Certificate, now in operation to allow travel without quarantine, reportedly would not recognise the Indian-made AstraZeneca batch numbers 4120Z001 , 4120Z002 and 4120Z003 which are noted on the NHS app. Reports say 10 countries have now confirmed they will accept people who have had the Indian-made vaccine batches.
