LONDON, Feb 3 (Reuters) - Britain's health secretary said
that scientists had shown the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine
worked well, when asked about reported comments made by French
President Emmanuel Macron that is "quasi-ineffective" among
people over 65.
"My view is that we should listen to the scientists... and
the science on this one was already pretty clear, and then with
this publication overnight is absolutely crystal clear that the
Oxford vaccine not only works but works well," health secretary
Matt Hancock told BBC Radio on Wednesday, referring to new data
published by Oxford on Tuesday.
