Australia’s Minister for Health has rushed to reassure citizens about the safety and efficacy of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine, after a preliminary study in South Africa showed its poor results against the local strain.
South Africa halted the rollout of AstraZeneca vaccine in the wake of a disappointing new study that suggested the vaccine is only 22 percent effective against mild and moderate cases of the local variant of the virus.

“There is currently no evidence to indicate a reduction in the effectiveness of either the AstraZeneca or Pfizer vaccines in preventing severe disease and death. That is the fundamental task, to protect the health,” Greg Hunt told reporters in Canberra.
