Trials of a Covid-19 vaccine being developed by AstraZeneca and Oxford University will continue, following a review into the death of a volunteer in Brazil.Oxford University said a "careful assessment" had revealed no safety concerns.There are high hopes that the vaccine could be one of the first to make it onto the market.
Trials of the Oxford vaccine were paused last month after a reported side effect in a patient in the UK, but werePhase 3 trials in the US remain on hold while the regulator there conducts its own assessment. In a statement, Oxford University said "all significant medical incidents, whether participants are in the control group or the Covid-19 vaccine group, are independently reviewed."
Too bad
One death is enough to say no to this. Especially as they are not culpable financially to those injured or dead from it.
You should be ashamed of your misleading headline . It's because of this misinformation that anti-vaxers exist and why this vaccine will be so difficult to roll out and get life back to normal. Shame on you.
Yeah, NO.
Do your job : start questioning WHY we need universal vaccine for virus that only affects elderly & vulnerable? And given most volunteers appear to be young, how do we know its safe for elderly & vulnerable? These are questions FREE journalists should ask as public are
I wonder if they said ‘you may feel a small prick’ before they administered the syringe? 💉🦠
Yo he took the placebo and passed away from Covid. Why don't you report this? Your headline and article is incredibly misleading.
So how effective will be next year when Covid its from same cold infection family. Have we got any vaccines from cold too
All people in the queue for life saving vaccine
Only 1 month until COVID-20 is released
'Around December, the amount of Sputnik V coronavirus drug will amount to 5-6 million doses per month, which will make it possible to immunize 70% of the Russian population in 10-12 months.'
Why would there be any concerns when he was given the placebo and not the trial vaccine? This is yet more irresponsible scare mongering reporting from the BBC and further demonstrates why they are not fit for purpose and should be de-funded.
For the reactive types to a headline THEY WEREN’T GIVEN THE VACCINE!!
Is this recorded as a COVID related death then 🤔
😔
How to end the COVID-19 pandemic StopCovid
These people are true criminals They only care about money
This vaccine is not safe. One person became ill and now another has died. USA still has not resumed trials. So my advice is not to take this vaccine, keep away from it.
That’s why people afraid of taken it, anyway that’s mean russian vaccine is better, At least no one died of the vaccines
such a misleading headline! And proof nobody reads the whole story in the replies.
Nothing to see here.... just roll up your sleeve! 😂

No thank you. Not in my body. Having had COVID 19 I would rather just take my own personal precautions. No long term effect study of having the vaccine
One of the participants in the trials of a coronavirus vaccine developed by the University of Oxford died in Brazil. The 28-year-old volunteer died on October 15 due to complications from COVID. The BBC and other Western media will have a difficult job. But they handle it.
Sad that they died, but good news for the vaccine.

First ever Genetically Modified Vaccine
It will be a placebo.
of course, they hardly gonna say the vaccine killed him as no fucker would line up would they, LMFAO, god save his souls, foolish boy
This is a non story, someone died , who happened to be part of the trials in Brazil, doesn't say how or why they died but that it's safe to continue, stop stirring up shit BBC
Did they die within 28 days of the vaccine/ or is there no cut off date ... you know like the old way of reporting C19 deaths?
REALLY YOU THINK PEOPLE ARE STUPID, MMMMM AH! YA THEY ARE. SOMEONE DIES THINK ABOUT TAKEN ANY VACCINE NOT INTENSIVELY TEST FOR YES YEARS
Better chance to live positive than having vaccination then.
They're not only useless NigeriaGov They're the demons and killers of our dreams. We must not let them silent our voice now. Our voices must be heard! Theymessedwiththewronggeneration Buharimustresign Endsars Endswat Revolution
Because they received the placebo. If they'd received the vaccine it would be paused.
Because the victim wasn't white. 'Next volunteer please....'
one death is a failure.... toryscum
Whatever the outcome is hopefully positive AMAzimg effort of the British science
What a pity
In before some complete lunatic who spends their days playing mobile games tells you Covid is fake.
