After many people received a dose of the COVID-19 vaccination, they received a sticker showing their support for the roll-outand to encourage others to talk about and to have their own doses. A digital version was also available on social media. The crown refers to the shape of the coronavirus. The virus has crown-like spikes on their surface when viewed under a microcope.Corona is Latin for crown.

After weeks of careful planning and installation, the NHS COVID-19 Vaccination Centre at the Science Museum first welcomed people to receive their COVID-19 vaccine on 11 March 2021. Run by NHS staff and volunteers, the clinic delivered over 122,000 doses to people over the course of a year. People had to pre-book their appointments when invited by the NHS. When the clinic first opened, the museum was closed to visitors but reopened on 19 May 2021 for five days a week.
