Moderna: studies confirm effectiveness of the Covid vaccine
(CercleFinance.com) - Moderna announced yesterday evening that new studies show the effectiveness of its Covid vaccine against the different variants in circulation.
The laboratory in particular cites a study conducted in partnership with Kaiser Permanente Southern California (KPSC) as well as the recent publication by the US CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention).
Moderna has also shared a new follow-up analysis up to 1 year suggesting a lower risk of breakthrough infection in the most recently vaccinated participants (median 8 months after first dose) than participants vaccinated last year (median 13 months after first dose) in a phase III trial.
“It is promising to see clinical and real-world evidence adding to the growing body of data on the effectiveness of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine,” declared Stéphane Bancel CEO of Moderna.
