Does the vaccine protect against new variants?

Experts are studying all of the current coronavirus vaccines to check how well they work against new, mutated variants of the virus.
The AstraZeneca vaccine is currently shown to be effective against the Delta Variant and may offer more limited protection against mild and moderate disease caused by the South Africa variant, however it must be noted that it should still protect against severe disease.

How efficacious is the vaccine?

The AZD1222 or AstraZeneca vaccine against COVID-19 has an efficacy of 63.09% against symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Longer dose intervals within the 8 to 12 weeks range are associated with greater vaccine efficacy.

Does it work against new variants?

WHO Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization or SAGE has reviewed all available data on the performance of the vaccine in the settings of variants of concern. SAGE currently recommends the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine according to the WHO Prioritization Roadmap, even if virus variants are present in a country.
In the meantime, we must maintain and strengthen public health measures that work including masking, physical distancing, handwashing, respiratory and cough hygiene, avoiding crowds, and ensuring good ventilation.

The AstraZeneca vaccine is shown to be safe and effective at protecting people from the extremely serious risks of COVID-19, including death, hospitalization and severe disease.
Vaccination has been shown to contribute to reducing deaths and severe illness from COVID-19, and to reduce the transmission of COVID-19.
