The UK government has pre-ordered 100 million doses of the vaccine.
CEO Pascal Soriot said more studies may be needed to provide clarity on its data.
This vaccine from Astrazeneca and Oxford University is being tested in various locations around the world.
A leader behind the vaccine said it could be ready by the end of the year despite the pause.
AstraZeneca announced on Wednesday it had “voluntarily paused” its trial of the vaccine.
The Mexican government is working with the company AstraZeneca to carry out trials of the Oxford vaccine.
THE GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCED last night that Ireland will return to Level 3 restrictions (with some variations) for the month of December.
It follows six weeks of Level 5 restrictions, and the new guidelines will allow people to be a bit more social and for businesses to open ahead of Christmas, offering a sense of relief to many after a tough year.
But although Covid-19 cases have reduced in recent weeks, there are worries that going back to Level 3 now will inevitably lead to a rise in cases again and that we’ll face tighter restrictions again in the new year.
So today, we want to know: Do you agree with the Government’s decision to reduce Ireland’s Covid-19 restrictions to Level 3?
