EMA: all of the vaccines allowed are effective and vs. delta variant of coronavirus
The European Medicines Agency said that all Covid-19 vaccines, which were approved in the European Union, offer protection against all variants of coronavirus, including the delta variant, Reuters reported. However, the regulator urged vaccine manufacturers to be actively monitored and strictly monitored.
"A number of options have emerged in recent months, we expect," said Briefing Marco Cavalry, head of the EMA vaccine department and strategies for EMA and added:
"It is very important to have continuous monitoring and strict monitoring of all approved vaccines against emerging options." He recalled that the highly transmission variant of SARS-COV-2 identified for the first time in India led to a wave of new infections around the world.
At present, the European Union has four authorized vaccines against Covid-19: Pfizer / Biontech, Astrazeneca, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson.
The briefing has made it clear that EMA will continue to assess CureVac's coronaviral vaccine, even after the German biotech company announced that its vaccine shows only 48% efficiency after the final analysis.
Once again, representatives of the Agency explained that the institution did not apply for the authorization of the Covishield, a version of the Astrazeneca vaccine made in the Indian Serum Institute. They indicated that Emma could approve and authorize only vaccines for which the relevant documentation was filed.
Reuters recalls that in the last days tensions and disputes between India and Europe have emerged due to the exclusion of Covishield from the Passport Program of the European Union.
Germany and Spain are among the nine European countries who have notified India that they will accept passengers vaccinated with Covishield have declared sources from the Indian Foreign Ministry quoted by Reuters.
