Guy, I know that, I don't know that I've given the correct link.
Was trying to look for it and that was what I came up with. But today's news reports link to UK Coronavirus Clinical Characterisation Consortium and Professor Calum Semple, who the pdf refer to.
Prof Semple is reported as saying -
'What you see is most people who were admitted had caught their infection within a week of vaccination – either side of the vaccination – but then there was a really sharp drop off in numbers.
'Three weeks after being vaccinated, we could only count 32 people out of the 2,000 that had been vaccinated and that's a tiny, tiny number – that's less than 2 per cent.
'And that's just after the first vaccine, and that's in your frail, elderly population. So this is really good real world data showing that this vaccine works and that one dose works really well.'
As my powers of concentration have been decimated (either by the pandemic, or by early dementia!!) I would be grateful if anyone can find a link to the correct paper!
In the meantime, as Prof Calum has reportedly said 'And that's just after the first vaccine, and that's in your frail, elderly population.'
We may hear more tomorrow, results have been presented to SAGE and ministers today.
Absolutely fantastic news, I think. I've had both my doses now, just waiting for daughter and her husband, late 30s
