Studies at Pirbright demonstrate two doses of Oxford University’s COVID-19 vaccine boosts immune response in pigs
The Pirbright Institute, working in collaboration with the University of Oxford, have successfully shown that two doses of the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (AZD1222) vaccine produce a greater antibody response than a single dose in pigs.
The emergence and subsequent spread of SARS-CoV-2 has caused a global pandemic that continues to have a huge impact on human health and welfare, and the world economy. Vaccines to protect against COVID-19 and to reduce SARS-CoV-2 transmission are urgently required to combat this global emergency.
