officials to make it available to the uk public aged 18 and above. our health reporter, smitha mundasad, told us about the significance of the updated vaccine. the uk medicines regulatory authorities say this is a strengthened tool in our armoury against coronavirus. the original vaccines out there were designed against the original coronavirus strain back in 2020. this vaccine is designed to protect against that original strain and the omicron variant that is now common across the world. moderna did testing in about 437 people, and they say from these preliminary tests that these people had a better immune response against the omicron virus that is out there right now. we have yet to see how that will play out in the real world, but the authorities have approved it now for people over 18. the question is, who will get it? we don't know that yet but we are expecting a decision quite soon. we do know there are about 26

The Story With Martha MacCallum-20211216-20:18:00

a university of hong kong study awaiting peer review found the omicron variant infects and multiplies 70 times faster than delta and the original coronavirus strain in human air passages leading to the lungs but it's slowing in infecting the lungs. researchers say this could appear why it spreads so rapidly but why most cases are mild. another study shows the booster dose of pfizer's vaccine offers 70% protection about symptomatic covid infection with those that received two primary doses of the mrna vaccine. although u.s. health officials are urging everybody to get booster shots, the cdc still considers those that have received their primary doses to be fully vaccinated. >> we're continuing to follow
