Most of the AstraZeneca coronavirus vaccines on order 'won't be used'

Dutch News  

The head of the vaccination department at public health institute RIVM has been criticised after telling the AD in an interview that the millions of doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine due to reach the Netherlands in the coming weeks will largely remain unused. So many vaccines will be delivered that the AstraZeneca vaccine, currently only given to people aged 60 to 64, will not be needed, Jaap van Delden told the paper. But the national family doctors association LHV has reacted to the comments, saying that the AstraZeneca vaccine is extremely important, and that the interview with Van Delden has only confused the issue more. ‘This is absolutely not helping.’ ‘As far as we are concerned it is clear: if the choice is AstraZeneca now or possibly another vaccine later, then the choice should absolutely be for AstraZeneca now.’ The European Medicines Agency on Friday also reiterated that the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine ‘outweighs its risks in adults of all age groups’.
