(Corrects headline to show removal of age limit refers to
AstraZeneca vaccine, not J&J)
MADRID, March 30 (Reuters) - Spain has decided to remove an
upper age limit of 65 years on AstraZeneca's COVID-19
vaccine and give Johnson & Johnson's version of the jab
to people aged over 66, Cadena Ser radio reported on Tuesday.
A public health commission approved the change at a meeting
on Tuesday, the broadcaster said, citing a document it had seen,
a week after Spain decided to reintroduce the AstraZeneca
treatment for people aged 18-65.
Several European countries had suspended administering the
shot over concerns related to cases of blood clots.
