AstraZeneca filed with Invima the request for approval of emergency use for its vaccine against covid-19. This was announced this Friday by the Minister of Health, Fernando Ruíz, through his Twitter account.
Ruíz explained that the filing occurs four days after the pharmaceutical company received the approval of emergency use from the World Health Organization (WHO).

It should be remembered that the National Government signed at the end of 2020 the acquisition of 10 million doses of this vaccine to cover five million people (two doses per person required).
In addition, more doses will arrive from this vaccine through the Covax mechanism.

According to decree 1787 of 2020, which regulates the approval of emergency use of medicines and biologicals against covid-19 that have not definitively concluded their studies, Invima has a period of ten days to review the information provided by the company and to grant or reject the request for the use of the vaccine.
(Plus: A single dose of Pfizer vaccine would be 85% effective against covid-19)
To file an emergency use request, AstraZeneca must provide the clinical, efficacy and safety data it obtained in the biologics development trials and commit to updating it as new information becomes available.
Invima has already given emergency use authorization for the Pfizer vaccine and authorized the importation of Sinovac vaccines.
