Scientists say it is safe for humans and triggered the critical immune response that could stop the virus in its tracks. Larger trials still need to be done. We begin our coverage from oxford. Reporter phase one could have gone better for the oxford team. Early positive signs now confirmed in the research. This is an important milestone on the path and we are moving rapidly forward to try and evaluate whether the vaccine actually protects the population by conducting largescale trials. We have 10,000 people around the world. We still need to see how the vaccine performs in older people who are more susceptible to disease. There will be more complications to compute reporter convocations to come. Reporter the vaccine is developed from a disease and champion chimpanzees. Human body that the will develop immunity to the spike protein and prevent infection. The vaccine produces two reactions, producing a defensive antibody response as well as t cells that attack the infected cells. T cell response takes just 14 days after volunteers were injected. Antibody response peaked at 28 days, and side effects were monarch, mainly were minor, mainly tiredness and headaches. I have my fingers crossed them up but to say that we will get a vaccine this year or next year is alas, and exaggeration. We are not there yet. Reporter this is an encouraging result in oxford provoking an immune reaction is just the first agent vaccine for develop it.

I dont think there will be one answer to cobit, i think there will be different answers. Reporter nine in 10 vaccine projects end in failure. Theres no guarantee that this will lead to an effective Covid Vaccine but it is a positive step. Earlier, i spoke to professor adrian hill from the research group. He explained what will happen next. We are looking for efficacy of the vaccine, requiring recruiting 10,000 people for the phase three trial. Those people are being recruited at 19 centers around the country in britain, and we are following those to see who gets infected covid and who doesnt. That will come to a conclusion as and as we have enough cases in the trial. That hasnt happened yet but it will probably take a couple of months. We will get an answer whether or not there are more or less cases. Covidy, less cases of with the vaccine. Withe confident that as all vaccines, the immune responses last years, not months. Decline though it may over time, we dont expect that to be an initial problem. In other words, the vaccine should last for a year, hopefully longer.
