Novavax has been approved for use in Australia — here's what that means

Australia Headlines News

Australia Latest News, Australia Headlines

Australia's Therapeutic Goods Administration has approved the Novavax coronavirus vaccine for use in adults.

The more common mRNA vaccines like Pfizer and Moderna contain a genetic instruction telling your body how to make a spike protein like that on the SARS-CoV-2 virus, so that your immune system learns to recognise and fight it.WatchTGA head John Skerritt says the Novavax vaccine will be two doses, three weeks apart.

Two separate worldwide trials found Novavax had a 90 per cent efficacy rate at preventing symptomatic infection with no major signals of adverse events. "Our dream is that we might turn our 95 per cent [vaccination rate] into 97 or 98 per cent in this country. Who knows." "For a variety of reasons, it seems some have remained reluctant to receive these vaccines thus far so an additional option, based on what is considered perhaps a more traditional platform, is likely to increase our vaccination rate even further," he said.

Wasn’t he just deported? returnSerb

Australia 'closed' of tennis.

Should have called it Invermectin. Then even the brain-dead morons would get vaccinated.

I see that auntie is still, unthinkingly, pushing the government's 95% vaxed line. Just over 78% of us are double vaccinated and about a quarter of us are triple vaccinated. What we need now is to order the new vaccines that are being developed to combat Omicron etc.

Hopefully the get approval for kids, I don't want my kids to have the myocarditis causing fakeccines.

If “all other vaccines are completely safe” why do big pharma insist on being indemnified ?

ABCscience Most people have no idea of the technology of this vaccine Plus we don't know the efficacy for this for Omicron Plus it's too late

Finally

Should have Novax Jokeavic promoting Novavax

I’m gunna get each of the different vaccines, collect them all like Pokémon, approve Sputnik next!

Collect all vax stamps, from your friendly chemist today.

All the people who claimed to be ‘waiting for novavax’ now have to get vaccinated?

It means all the people who lied about waiting for it can make up another lie to avoid getting it.

But we just deported him didn't we

No clot shots plz
