Paul Hunter said : “The reported cluster linked to a care home where the residents had already had two doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine is particularly concerning,” “Although [it seems that] the second dose was only given a week before the outbreak this does raise concerns about how effective existing vaccines are against these variants. If the rate of growth in cases that we have seen in the past few weeks continue it will not be long before the Indian variants become the dominant variant and possibly triggers an early surge in total cases”
