South Korea has it will resume administering AstraZeneca’s coronavirus vaccine to all eligible people between the ages of 30 and 60 (Lee Jin-man/AP)South Korea has said it will resume administering AstraZeneca’s coronavirus vaccine to all eligible people between the ages of 30 and 60. Last week, the country suspended the use of the jab for anyone aged 60 or younger pending the outcome of a review by the European Medicines Agency. It said three cases of blood clots have been found in vaccinated people in South Korea – but none of the type of side-effects determined by European authorities. In recent days, South Korea has been experiencing a steady increase in new coronavirus infections. Earlier on Sunday, South Korea reported 677 new confirmed cases, raising the total to 109,559 with 1,768 deaths.
