Unnecessary panic leads to lack of confidence in AstraZeneca's Covid-19 vaccine, researcher says

Description

London, March 19 (EFE), (Camera: Pilar Tomás).- The suspension of vaccination with AstraZeneca in a dozen European countries after registering several cases of thrombosis and embolisms contributed to an "unnecessary panic that can have a great negative impact on the vaccine confidence", warns Salvador Macip, a researcher at the University of Leicester. FOOTAGE OF LONDON.SOUNDBITES OF SALVADOR MACIP, RESEARCHER AT THE UNIVERSITY OF LEICESTER: "Covid-19 vaccination campaign in Europe is going bad, much more slowly than expected. And the problem is that the number of those vaccinated will determine the level of restrictions, the level of normalcy that each country has. Europe will be slower than the countries which are going well, such as Israel, UK or the US.""How is it going to develop? It is difficult to know but what we know is that we will reach the solution to pandemic through vaccination."
