Inclusion Criteria

The volunteer must satisfy all the following criteria to be eligible for the study:

Exclusion Criteria

The volunteer may not enter the study if any of the following apply:

  • Planned receipt of any vaccine other than the study intervention within 30 days before and after each study vaccination .with the exception of the licensed seasonal influenza vaccination and the licensed pneumococcal vaccine. Participants will be encouraged to receive this vaccination at least 7 days before or after their study vaccine.
  • Prior receipt of an investigational or licensed vaccine likely to impact on interpretation of the trial data (e.g. Adenovirus vectored vaccines, any coronavirus vaccines).

Additional exclusion criteria (subset of participants receiving Paracetamol in group 4 only)

• History of allergic disease or reactions likely to be exacerbated by Paracetamol

Re-vaccination exclusion criteria:

The following AEs associated with any vaccine, or identified on or before the day of vaccination constitute absolute contraindications to further administration of an IMP to the volunteer in question. If any of these events occur during the study, the subject will not be eligible to receive a booster dose and will be followed up by the clinical team or their GP until resolution or stabilisation of the event:

  • Anaphylactic reaction following administration of vaccine
  • Pregnancy. An exception to this will be prior to receipt of a booster dose at extra visit B. If a pregnant woman has discussed vaccination with their usual clinician (e.g. GP) and chooses to receive a COVID-19 vaccination, this may be administered by the trial team as part of extra visit B or as part of the provision of treatment to controls
  • Any AE that in the opinion of the Investigator may affect the safety of the participant or the interpretation of the study results
