The Deputy Chief Medical Officer has downplayed religious concerns over the use of foetal cells in the development of a coronavirus vaccine.

Catholic Archbishop Anthony Fisher expressed concerns over the Oxford University trial drug which uses embryonic stem cells in manufacturing. Dr Nick Coatsworth reassured people of faith, however, saying researchers worked according to a high ethical standard.

“The reality for vaccines is that they need cell cultures in order for us to grow them, the human cell is a really important part of their development,” he said. “There are strong ethical regulations surrounding the use of any human cell, particularly foetal human cells.” Image: AP
