After Pfizer’s new crown vaccine was approved for universal use in the UK, CSIRO’s health director Rob Grenfell insisted that the company’s vaccine can be used safely in Australia.
This is the first time that injections with rigorous scientific support have been approved, and trials have shown that these two injections are 95% effective in preventing the spread of new crowns. Pfizer vaccine is one of four vaccines already ordered in Australia. Health Minister Greg Hunt said Australia may approve in January and get 10 million doses of vaccine in March. Dr. Glenfield said that Australia has the most stringent drug regulatory agency in the world, so the approval speed is relatively slow. But this is actually a good thing for Australians, because the authorities will not only review the test evidence of the vaccine, but also refer to the vaccination situation in the UK in the coming months.
He said that if the vaccine is approved, medical workers are most likely to get the vaccine first, followed by other necessary staff. Since the vaccine requires ultra-low temperature storage at minus 70 degrees Celsius, Dr. Glenfield said it will most likely be distributed from the hospital.
