“I’d like to address Sinovac in terms of efficacy, because there is some confusion […] so it is true that the efficacy of Sinovac for the original strain is at 50 percent. However, that 50 percent was done in a unique Stage 3 clinical trial in Brazil where 100 percent of the participants were healthcare workers assigned to COVID-19 wards,” he said.
“We’re actually lucky that a study was done on a COVID-19 vaccine using that protocol. I don’t believe that any other vaccine has done that protocol that Sinovac did,” he added.
