Israel has downgraded the efficacy of Pfizer's Covid vaccine amid the rapid spread of the Indian variant. Asked about the Israeli vaccine efficacy figures, Boris Johnson's official spokesperson dismissed fears that the jabs don't work as well. He said: 'We know based on the latest published evidence... that two doses of Pfizer is highly effective against the Delta Variant.' AstraZeneca's vaccine is also slightly less effective against the Indian variant, which is now dominant in most of England's 300-plus councils. Fewer than one per cent of the world's Covid vaccine supplies have gone to poorer nations so far.
