Dr. Muhammad Awad Tajuddin, Advisor to the President of the Republic for Health Affairs, said that knowing the effect of vaccines on the Corona virus and the duration of immunity that the vaccine will give to a person exposed to infection will need more trials and time, indicating that so far there is nothing declared that has been published in the magazine Scientific on the results of clinical clinical trials, adding: “We need to see the results and know how effective the vaccination is, and it will enable immunity for a period of eh, and the availability of vaccines to protect against the Corona virus will require a long period of trials.”
He added, in an intervention with journalist Ahmed Abu Zaid in the “Al-Haqiqa” program, broadcast on Extra News Channel: “We follow all the experiments that are carried out on various vaccines around the world, and any vaccine in the world for any disease must obtain approval from the scientific authorities, headed by the World Health Organization. Mostly, its composition is one, then pharmaceutical companies produce it, and we communicate with all scientific institutions to provide a share of vaccines as soon as they are reached and produced, in addition to obtaining additional quantities if necessary.
He continued: “The quantities that will be made available to the whole world, priorities have been set for them, the most important of which are medical workers because they are directly mixed with patients, and because they are more vulnerable to infection, in addition to people who suffer from chronic diseases such as heart and chest diseases, diabetes and others, and until all people are vaccinated. That may require that we wait until next winter. “
