I notice that the term "jab" seems to be prevalent in the UK (as here) but they seem to prefer "shot" in the US.
I must say that I'm becoming increasingly irritated by the word "jab". It's bad enough when referring to the act of injection (although the imagery seems unnecessarily violent) but using it as a synonym for the vaccine itself doesn't make sense to me.
