A small clinical trial is showing that the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine may not be as effective against the South African variant of Covid-19. As a result, South Africa is suspending inoculations of the vaccine. Aired on 02/08/2021.

AstraZeneca Vaccine May Not Be As Effective Against South African Covid Variant | Stephanie Ruhle
These reports are about to drive me crazy….
Don’t worry, it’s quite feasible to tweak a vaccine.
“Like a miracle…it will go away” – Trump
Stop watching the news….they only feed fear….especially this channel.
UK is killing to people by producing fake vaccine, Horrible !!!
That’s Donald Trump’s fault
An african variant is Trumps fault?? Mmmk…😂…..Get over Trump already…….if you are capable.

@Stevan R trump lost
@Kreegrr guess you better go get in line then.
“The kingdom of God has drawn near; repent and believe the gospel!”
LOL Nah
@vashdegun suite yourself…..you’ll regret it….dont say you weren’t warned and told.
There wont be very many that are saved friend.
Not

On January 31, when 11 deaths of health care and frontline workers were reported from across the country following administration of Serum Institute’s Covishield vaccine, nearly two-dozen scientists and others wrote to Health Minister Dr. Harsh Vardhan and Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI) V.G. Somani, urging them to urgently investigate the deaths. They requested that findings of the causality assessment made by the AEFI Committee be made public.
Red light! Green light!
I am blocking MSNBC for their “filtering” speech actions.
Disappointing.
I predicted this last February. How is it they were not prepared for these mutations?
The news just keeps better, huh? 😬!
UK is killing to people by producing fake vaccine, Horrible !!!
“China virus” = racist
“South African virus” = perfectly fine

Not to worry, the lead developer at Oxford University has already said a modified vaccine for the South African variant could be available by the end of the year, subject of course to the usual snags associated with academia – such as doing very little as slowly as possible, obstructing genuine science, lying about Einstein’s work (amongst other things) and triggering pandemics.

Stephanie Ruhle is a goddess.
Imagine that, a virus figures out how to outwit a vaccine BEFORE it has had significant contact with the vaccine but manages to make just the right adjustments. Before the ‘random mutation’ people blow up, you will note he said ‘adapted’ which is the other form of mutation ‘adaptive mutation’ … why you have antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Kinda gives you the paranoid though ‘Did somebody help it along’?
What??!
Can’t fix one variant, everyone’s surprised they can’t fix another?
“AstraZeneca Vaccine … Not … As Effective Against South African Covid Variant” motivates us, the people of America, to redouble our efforts to rapidly find out at any given moment, including even while On-Line, who among us are unwittingly contagious (i.e. pre-symptomatic or asymptomatic) in order to #ConvinceItForward for them to call their doctor and to self-quarantine per CDC guidelines in hopes of stopping this pandemic instead of having more #MourningInAmerica (per #LincolnProject). Thus, we’re hoping for the best while preparing for the worse-case scenario of the #UKvariant strain(s) mutations and others like the South African, Brazilian, Californian & #Cluster5Mink mutations rendering current vaccines no longer effective.
The whole thing sounds like a scam. Pushing and selling vaccines not approved yet and tested properly.
Don’t be so foolish. For a vaccine to be “pushed” it has to be “approved.” That’s why the AstraZenica vaccine isn’t available in the U.S. Secondly, this information if correct, which I don’t think ot will turn out to be, only shows a problem wirh the South African variant. If you don’t have this variant in your country then there’s no problem.
@Cortez The Killer how come it was available in South Africa then? I don’t trust the results published previously. Probably a scam.
It is a scamdemic.
But but but the China travel ban!!! 😅😂🤣
Dr. Gottlieb, former head of FDA, now on board of Pfizer , says” We never tried this in people before, but we are working on boosters for the fall” , and winter spring, and summer.
Don”t worry, be happy you have not gotten your jab .
ok.Why not introduce Chinese vaccines? The Chinese vaccine is already in use in more than a dozen countries. There is no negative news about the Chinese vaccine, which is an effective vaccine. Preliminary data show that the Chinese vaccine is still effective against the South African variant. I don’t understand why Europe doesn’t introduce Chinese vaccines
