By Zoila Palma: Public Health England (PHE) said on Thursday that 2 doses of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine could be up to 90% effective, Global News reports.
Britain was the first country to roll out the AstraZeneca vaccine and continues to carry out studies.
PHE said that the findings were the first of its kind on the effectiveness of two doses of AstraZeneca in a real-world setting.
However, it cautioned that it had “low confidence” in the findings, and the results would be inconclusive until more evidence was gathered.
“This latest real-world data from PHE adds to the growing body of evidence that demonstrates the effectiveness of our vaccine against COVID-19,” a spokesman said.
Due to the growing concern about the B.1.617.2 variant first found in India, Britain has now cut the gap between doses to 8 weeks for those over 50.
