The second shot of Nanocovax, a Vietnamese Covid-19 vaccine, has proven safe and immunogenic, the Vietnam Military Medical University said after volunteers were vaccinated starting Thursday.
The second shot produces an immune response four to five times higher than the first, it said.
Ho Anh Son, deputy director of the university’s Institute of Biomedicine and Pharmacy, said researchers would need to monitor volunteers health from the next six months to a year to ascertain the stability and longevity of antibodies produced.
