LONDON, July 22 ― Two doses of Pfizer or AstraZeneca's Covid-19 vaccine are nearly as effective against the highly transmissible Delta coronavirus variant as they are against the previously dominant Alpha variant, a study published yesterday showed.

Yesterday's study found that two doses of Pfizer's shot was 88 per cent effective at preventing symptomatic disease from the Delta variant, compared to 93.7 per cent against the Alpha variant, broadly the same as previously reported. “Only modest differences in vaccine effectiveness were noted with the Delta variant as compared with the Alpha variant after the receipt of two vaccine doses,” Public Health England researchers wrote in the study.

PHE had previously said that a first dose of either vaccine was around 33 per cent effective against symptomatic disease from the Delta variant.

All vaccines makers says that

25) sure looks like we are headed to 3rd shot boosters… both the original vaccine booster as well as a DeltaVariant tailored booster according to Pfizer. Their internal data also shows waning.

Israel Ministry of Health just released vaccine efficacy update due to DeltaVariant—only 39% Pfizer VE for COVID19 infection, 40.5% for symptomatic, 88% for hospitalization, 91% for ICU/low oxygen/ death. More—waning efficacy

Malaymail editor should be fired for carrying the same fake propaganda as reuters. Latest data from israel shows Pfizer vaccine efficacy for delta variant infections drops to 39% and protection against infections also drop significantly over time.

It is western nation propaganda against China lah. If u spend time reading about this topic u would notice that generally not so great report about Sinovac is published by western media or Hong Kong or countries not friendly to China. So please trust Dr Moor Hisham.

Mala mail is spreading the same fake propaganda as Reuters and is misleading the public. Who is the editor of malay mail? Pfizer and AZ are not working well against the delta variant based on latest surges at UK, USA and Israel despite having the highest vacinations rates

DGHisham i right Sinovac is as good? Why study shows the other?
