在研究者们说或牛津大学研发的疫苗对南非变种毒株引起的轻症作用有限后，南非政府宣布暂停使用阿斯利康疫苗。
亨特说他相信阿斯利康疫苗可以帮助澳大利亚。
“我们最近看到英国的更多数据，我近日还和英国的卫生大臣交谈过，他们的结果非常强劲。” 亨特告诉2GB电台。
“关于特定的变种，特定的国家，全世界都在学习关于疫苗的一切，总的来说我们看到被审批的疫苗表现非常强劲，重症和住院率的早期数据显示疫苗具有100%的保护效用。”
牛津说修改过亿处理南非变种毒株的疫苗要到9月才能就绪。
Greg Hunt has moved to address concerns about how the AstraZeneca vaccine interacts with the South African variant of COVID-19.
The South African Government has announced a pause on use of the drug after researchers said the vaccine developed with Oxford University offered only limited protection against mild disease caused by the South African variant.
Mr Hunt said he remained confident the vaccine would help in Australia.
“What we’ve seen is additional data coming out of the UK recently, I spoke with the UK Health Secretary in recent days, that’s their health minister equivalent, they’re having very strong results,” he told 2GB radio.
“In terms of particular variants, particular countries, the world is learning about those with all vaccines, all up what we’re seeing is very significant results with the vaccines that have been approved with up to 100 per cent protection on the early data that we’ve seen in the clinical trial results for serious illness and hospitalisation.”
Oxford said modifications to deal with the variant were not likely to be available until about September.
