German health officials have agreed to restrict the use of AstraZeneca’s coronavirus vaccine in people younger than 60, amid fresh concern over unusual blood clots reported in a tiny number of those who received the shots. At a Leipzig vaccination centre, opinions were divided over whether to ask for a shot from another pharmaceutical company. Some 2.7 million doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine have been administered in Germany so far.
