7NEWS Australia published this video item, entitled “Professor Ian Frazer’s verdict on Australia’s COVID vaccines | 7NEWS” – below is their description.
Professor Ian Frazer is one of Australia’s most highly-regarded immunologists, winning the 2006 Australian of the Year Award for his work on HPV vaccines to prevent cervical cancer.
In an exclusive interview, he’s told 7NEWS that both the Pfizer and AstraZeneca COVID vaccines are effective against the virus, and are necessary if Australia is to return to pre-COVID normality.
“They protect the individual against getting seriously ill and ending up in hospital. These vaccines do not stop you catching the infection, and they don’t stop you spreading it to other people, unfortunately, which is why it’s really important that we get everybody vaccinated, because the vaccine is a personal protection against the bad consequences of COVID-19 infection.” – Professor Ian Frazer.
