Not sure if posted but :francis:


They pitched those same results the opposite way in the daily mail's report on that study.

Nadhim Zahawi says AstraZeneca is 'confident' its vaccine prevents serious illness caused by South African strain after study of 2,000 patients found some got mild or moderate symptoms – as he reveals roll-out almost hit 1,000 jabs EVERY MINUTE
  • A small trial of 2,026 people found jab had 'limited efficacy' in protecting against mild and moderate disease
  • The pharmaceutical giant said scientists will now start adapting the vaccine to kill the new variant
  • Nobody died or was hopitalised during study by South Africa 's University of the Witwatersrand and Oxford
  • A testing blitz is underway in some parts of the country to track down cases of the South African variant
  • Minister Nadhim Zahawi said AstraZeneca 'confident' jab protects against serious illness from SA variant
A small trial of just 2,026 people in South Africa found the Oxford/AstraZeneca jab had 'limited efficacy' in protecting against mild and moderate disease caused by the mutant strain, which has been found in 11 people in the UK who have not recently travelled from abroad.

Mr Zahawi was asked during an interview on Sky News this morning if he is worried about the study's findings.

He replied: 'I spoke to Jonathan Van Tam this morning. Of course the good news about the Oxford AstraZeneca vaccine which is the flipside of that headline you have just quoted is that it does protect against severe disease.'

He added: 'As I say, through their own trials AstraZeneca is confident that it does effectively deal with serious illness, serious disease and hospitalisation.'

Researchers say approach to pandemic needs to shift after news Oxford/ AstraZeneca jab does not stop mild or moderate illness with variant

Does the u.s. government plan to buy astrazeneca's doses? I knew there was a pledge to buy them last year but I had no clue whether or not it was finalized.

They did secure doses from AZ last year, so they're already paid for. Whether or not they're utilized is another story I guess. But I'm sure they will be. Which is why I've been telling people get the vaccines now if they are available to them. Once these jobber vaccines are approved you won't have a choice

that's the shyt I was worried about. I know y'all worked hard on your product but I'd much rather have moderna's or Pfizer's vaccine :(

I'll have to look again but I think pfizer was chosen as the vaccine to produce en masse for biden's defensive production act

Sputnik 5 seems to be doing well (so far) and is more traditional. Phase three study results outside of Russia still pending.

Although I think there is some truth to this.

Germany is looking at Sputnik so we shall see.
