The University of Oxford and the pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca announced on Saturday (12) that they will resume testing of their vaccine against Covid-19. According to the statement, the safety committees assessed that there would be no reason to maintain the suspension. The information was provided by journalist Jamil Chad, from Uol.

“Clinical trials will resume at all clinical trial centers in the UK,” says the university. “Worldwide, about 18,000 people received the study vaccines as part of the trial. In large trials like this one, some participants are expected to become ill and each case must be carefully evaluated to ensure a careful safety assessment, ”she explained.

Tests around the world, including in Brazil, were suspended earlier this week due to a suspected “serious adverse reaction” in one patient. “The independent review process has been concluded and following the recommendations of both the independent safety review committee and the UK regulator, testing will be restarted in the UK,” the statement said.

Also according to the university, the patient’s medical information will not be disclosed, due to the confidentiality of the participants. “We are committed to the safety of our participants and to the highest standards of conduct in our studies and will continue to closely monitor safety,” he added.
