The group with the highest efficacy, 90%, used a halved first dose and a regular second dose. Analysis of the results indicated that this vaccine could reduce transmission of the virus from an asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 patient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Andrew Pollard, director of the Oxford Vaccine Group and chief investigator of the Oxford Vaccine Trial, said<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"These findings show that - in Oxford - we have an effective vaccine that will save many lives. With great excitement, we discovered that the vaccine, in one of our administered dose trials, can be as effective as 90%. If this vaccine regimen is carried out, more people could have access to the vaccine through its distribution,\" said Pollar, adding that \"today's announcement is only possible because of the many volunteers in that trial, and the strong and talented team of researchers deployed around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No cases were reported whose side effects required hospitalization. The sampling required 24,000 volunteers who were selected from April in the United Kingdom, Brazil and South Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the University of Oxford, it is important that \"it can be easily administered in existing health systems\", so this vaccine can be stored at 2\u00baC to 8\u00baC -35.6\u00baF to 46.4\u00baF- and distributed in a similar way to some types of insulin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is currently under development in 10 countries for large-scale production, Oxford said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">EEJ<\/h6>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00abLa \u201cvacuna para el mundo\u201d de la Universidad de Oxford es efectiva\u00bb, anunci\u00f3 la Universidad Oxford con sede en Inglaterra, Reino Unido.
