A two-dose regimen of the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine did not show protection against mild-to-moderate Covid-19 due to the B.1.351 variant. (Funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and others; ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT04444674. Pan African Clinical Trials Registry number, PACTR202006922165132. ).

By ignoring such studies and dismissing side effects like the AZ induced Thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome the UK establishment is harming the objective of vaccinating the world by arming the anti-vaxxer brigade and the anything-as-long-as-its-not-from-the-UK activists.

Dr. Nick Coatsworth: ‘Activist’ doctors’ phoney pandemic wars put recovery at risk

There is a hardcore rump of activist doctors who have been anti-Astra Zeneca since the start of this year, misquoting and misrepresenting the phase 3 trial data and, in my view, substantially undermining the national program. The management of community expectation and concern over thrombosis with thrombocytopenia has been rendered significantly more challenging in light of the misinformation campaign waged in January and February of this year by those of our colleagues who took a strident position against the AZ vaccine.
