Booster Vaccine Against Beta Variant of COVID-19: Oxford University said on Monday that it has started a new phase of vaccination as part of human trials of the vaccine to control beta variants of the coronavirus. This variant of the virus was first found in South Africa. According to the University of Oxford, which is conducting research in collaboration with AstraZeneca, the AZD 2816 ‘booster’ vaccine will be given to volunteers against the B.1.351 variant. It is usually called the beta variant of the virus.
The Phase II and III trials will be sponsored by AstraZeneca and will be led by the same. About 2,250 participants from Britain, South Africa, Brazil and Poland will be included in this trial. For this study, participants will have to take two doses of the approved COVID vaccine (Beta Variant Of Covid). Professor Sir Andrew J Pollard, principal researcher and director of the Oxford Vaccine Group at the University of Oxford, has given detailed information about this.
Who will get the AZD 2816 vaccine?
Pollard said that testing ‘booster’ doses of existing vaccines and new types of vaccines is important to ensure that we are well prepared to stay ahead of the coronavirus pandemic (Vaccine Againsta Covid 19 Beta Variant). The AZD 2816 vaccine will be administered to people who have already received two doses of the original Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine or an mRNA vaccine such as Pfizer-BioNtech.
At what interval will the vaccine be given?
For those who have not received the vaccine, AZD 2816 will be given in two doses at four or 12 weeks apart, or as a second dose four weeks after the first dose of the original Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine (Coronavirus Variants) . Let us tell you that the new variant of Corona virus had once again worried the world. Apart from beta variants, cases of alpha and delta variants have also been registered in many countries. In countries where rapid vaccination was carried out to control the infection and there was a decrease in the cases of infection, cases are increasing once again.
