JOHANNESBURG - AstraZeneca has resumed COVID-19 vaccine trials in South Africa, more than a week after tests were paused due to serious side effects in a participant in Britain, an official at the country’s Department of Health told Reuters on Tuesday. The move, confirmed to Reuters by director of affordable medicines in the health department, Khadija Jamaloodien, comes after the British drugmaker on Saturday got the go-ahead to restart trials in the UK, prompting Brazil to follow suit.

Tests remain on hold in the United States pending an investigation and the Serum Institute of India said it would restart its trials once it had permission from the Drugs Controller General of India.Our Standards:

They’re rushing the vaccines trials and are in a race to be the first . This is crazy., you can’t rush investigation into a new vaccine when you still don’t know a lot about the virus 🦠 STOP GIVING PUBLICITY ON ANY POSSIBLE VACCINE

To put our trust in a vaccine, transparency would be needed. AstraZeneca has not released the details on the hold. Not the best method to encourage people to roll up their sleeves. AstraZeneca

Exclusive: AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine trial in U.S. on hold until at least midweek - sourcesAstraZeneca's COVID-19 vaccine trial remains on hold in the United States pending a U.S. investigation into a serious side effect in Britain even as other trials of the vaccine resume, sources familiar with the details told Reuters. There seems to be two 'Americas.' One - white, culturally 'Southern,' racist, still believes in the southern racial hierarchy that existed before emancipation. The other - diverse, working-class, culturally more 'Northern,' multicultural and multiracial. Which do you want? The US will always act in the best interests of its indigenous companies. It comes as no surprise .
