korea less discuss this further with lawrence young lower pressure of molecular on college yet warrick medical school in the u.k. good to see you there's been some international skepticism about the vaccine but know that more than a 1000000 people in several countries have received it do you expect overall trust levels to improve somewhat. yes i do i think what's really important here is see more data in august leave all the other vaccines particularly for those that have been recently approved in the u.k. we've seen published phase 3 clinical trial data what we've heard about the vaccine is that it's very effective and it's really encouraging that the car the car is very is being distributed around the. globe but it would be nice to see some are some are some of the some of the data published and i think that we just raise the level of confidence in that in the russian vaccine argentina's health ministry is saying one percent of people who received russian just experienced side effects which were a minor headache said things like that is now to be expected that kind of number. that's

poland taiwan a successful examples of such a policy while for more on this we can now bring in lawrence young professor of molecular oncology at work medical school and political commentator andre walker thank you both for joining us on the program was great to see you both 1st question to you lawrence please that travel is being severely restricted in and out of the u.k. do you think these are measures the government should have taken a long time ago perhaps as as early as last march absolutely i think this might be too little too late we know that most of the introductions of the virus into the u.k. during the 1st wave of the pandemic and indeed you in the 2nd world travelers returning from mainland europe and i think it might be too late now but nevertheless we are faced with a new virus variants and i guess this strategy is to try and stop the introduction of these more worrying variants of the virus now andrea we heard jeremy hunt talking about g.p.s. tracking to make sure people have felt fine slating when required is not a good idea to think. well i think that what you have seen from l

patients have shown no side effects after receiving the russian job we asked molecular oncologist lawrence young about those findings. if you look at other studies particularly with the types of virus vectors that's in both the have both the astra zeneca on for the vaccine in the rush of vaccine then you do tend to see you know sometimes up to 3040 percent of people having some slight some slight effect some soreness at the side of injection and perhaps a couple of days of a mild headache a bit of muscle fatigue so one percent is actually of a very good result what we've heard about the russian vaccine is that it's very effective and it's really encouraging that the bar the that that the virus vector is being distributed around the globe the are in a vaccine is a very very expensive and what we i think we have a responsibility and it's so good to see that the russian vaccine is being distributed around the globe and i think that should also be the case for these are the vaccines we should all do our best particularly rich countries the world the countries to make sure that the vaccine is getting

first, let's go back to professor lawrence young, at warwick medical school, before boris johnson cameprime minister is obviously talking about further restrictive measures to curb the spread of the virus. how do you see those three factors playing out? what do you think is the solution, the best answer to where we are right now? i think we have got to recognise that even though we are dealing with a variant, and possibly more variants of the virus, they all transmit in the same way, they transmit in the same way, they transmit by people to people contact, and therefore its really important, as the prime minister was stressing, that we restrict transmission with hands, face and space, and i think we are having to face more strict and harsher restrictions, and that's the only way to dampen down the infection, to protect the nhs, and in so doing help with the capacity in terms of vaccination. i think we have a bit ofa vaccination. i think we have a bit of a battle at the moment between infection and injection, and we need to restrict the number of people getting infected by harsher restr

let's bring in professor lawrence young from birmingham, ebb gland.rofessor of molecular oncology. thank you so much for being here with us. i want to start with the good news from the two vaccine makers, novavax and johnson & johnson, about the efficacy of their vaccines. bad news, they seem to offer less protection at least against one of the variants. so how optimistic are you about the former and how worried are you about the latter? >> it is great to see more vaccines coming through and we know that the johnson & johnson and novavax are very effective against the common form of the virus and protect people from very severe disease. so that is the good news. and i guess if you look at the some of the variants, particularly the variant kur currently circulating in south africa where the johnson & johnson part of their trial took place, there is reduced he have raes. so it is around 60%. and that was also true for the novavax vaccine. the protection from disease was 60% as compared to the 90%. so it offers some protection, which is good news, but i
