WHO: "Vaccines will help control, not eradicate the coronavirus"

Vaccines against the

coronavirus

will not serve to eradicate

Covid-19

, but to reduce mortality and serious infections that end in hospitalizations, a senior official of the

World Health Organization (WHO)

has warned

.

"The advantage of the vaccine is that we can significantly reduce the number of deaths, serious cases and the impact on society in general, and in that sense we could return to a normal life," said the director of Health Emergencies of the WHO,

Mike Ryan

, without predicting a deadline for it.

The hope that the new disease could disappear with the vaccine has been left behind by several factors, including the presence of the

coronavirus

in so many countries, the impossibility of applying comprehensive and long-term measures to contain the contagions and the still very limited supply of vaccines.

The challenge is enormous if one considers that humanity has only managed to eradicate one disease from the planet: smallpox.

"The coverage of

vaccines

will not reach the point where you stop transmission completely. Chances are that follow disease around

for a

long time unless measures (prevention) and coverage of compliance

vaccination

that would require ", stressed the expert in a press conference.

07.00 US warns that the British strain of coronavirus may "cause more damage, including death"

The chief US epidemiologist,

Anthony Fauci

, has warned that after the data released by the UK Government, it must be assumed that the British variant of the

coronavirus

can "cause more damage, including death", and has pointed out that the

vaccine

remains effective even against the South African variant.

"We now have to assume that what is circulating predominantly in the UK has a certain degree of increase in what we call

virulence

, that is, the power of the

coronavirus

to cause harm, including death," the expert said to the program

Face the Nation

, CBS News chain.

"The most recent data is in line with what the British say. We want to see the data for ourselves, but we have reason to believe it. They are a very competent bunch," he added.

Fauci

indicated that the British variation of the virus is "in at least 20 states of the United States", and pointed out that the vaccines administered in the country, that of Moderna and Pfizer, "seem to continue to protect against the mutant strain."

coronavirus

AstraZeneca / Oxford

vaccine

would only be 8% effective in adults over 65 years of age is completely false," said an AstraZeneca spokesperson.

Bild

and

Handelsblatt

of

AstraZeneca's

Covid-19

vaccine

, developed with the

University of Oxford
