Its pedantics and speaking literally - but the official trials finish when the vaccine is offered for approval by the developer.

However, what does go on forever is learning and experience as well as (most importantly) the analysis of longer term data. Perhaps this is what he meant. 41 minutes ago, Happier diner said: Yes. He called it a trial. Its pedantics and speaking literally - but the official trials finish when the vaccine is offered for approval by the developer. Its 'on trial' unofficially speaking, forever or until we lose interest. But in this case the approval is provisional and trials are ongoing. In multiple jurisdictions. And no, I’m not a biochemists, but it’s lawyers who have ended up keeping developers of medicines and vaccines out of trouble by examining the protocols for trials and the grounds for approval after biochemists and regulators screwed it up. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banker Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 Yes it’s only first dose but still very impressive by UK 88.9% of over-60s have had their first COVID vaccine dose Latest figures also show that around one in five people (21.8%) aged 16 to 59 have now had a first dose. The estimates show little variation between regions, ranging from 19.3% in London to 24.2% in north west England. For the over-60s, regional estimates range from 81.7% for London to 91.2% for the Midlands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
