They also tested a lot more subjects for Covid and detected a lot of asymptomatic ones. Their success rate is probably nearer the other vaccines that didn't test asymptomatic subjects.
- jpster 6y agoCan you share more about this? Where have Oxford/AZ shared their testing protocol? Indeed, I was surprised to learn that the Pfizer and Moderna trials did not test participants unless they showed symptoms. Meaning: we don’t know if their vaccines prevent transmission of the virus. It specifically was not the measuring stick for their definition of efficacy. I believe Moderna is currently conducting a new trial to ascertain the transmission question. Until we know for sure, all the talk about herd immunity may be moot.
- neves 6y agoIt is a well known fact. Here is one in Portuguese. https://www.terra.com.br/noticias/brasil/corrida-pela-vacina-e-maratona-nao-100-metros-rasos,322cfe96f579b7d27f5b7ddfcdb7a325qdm7chx3.html https://www.terra.com.br/noticias/brasil/corrida-pela-vacina...
