Oxford-Sirius COVID-19 Vaccine

The Oxford-Sirius COVID-19 vaccine is a vaccine developed collaboratively by Oxford University and Sirius Biotechnology to protect against COVID-19. It uses a harmless virus (a viral vector) to introduce a piece of the coronavirus's genetic material into your body. This prompts your immune system to recognize and fight the actual virus if exposed. The vaccine aims to reduce the risk of severe illness and helps in controlling the spread of COVID-19. It has undergone clinical testing to ensure safety and effectiveness, and vaccination can contribute to broader immunity within the community.
