‘Very encouraging’ AstraZeneca vaccine slashes hospital admissions: UK study – The New Daily
The AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccination appears to reduce a person’s risk of hospital admission by 94 per cent, according to research carried out in Scotland.
The COVID-19 vaccines being used in the UK could reduce a person’s risk of being admitted to hospital by as much as 94 per cent four weeks after the first dose, new data suggests.
Experts examined COVID-19 hospital admissions in Scotland among people who have had their first jab and compared them to those who had not yet received a vaccine.
UK scientists looked at data on people who had received either the Pfizer jab or the vaccine developed by scientists at the University of Oxford with AstraZeneca.
