Mixing doses of the AstraZeneca and Pfizer vaccines elicits a strong immune system response to COVID-19 according to new research by Oxford Research group. The findings could allow flexibility global vaccine rollouts, allowing people to receive whatever jab is available. The research looked at the efficacy of having two jabs of one kind and then mixed vaccines, finding giving a combination dose had a stronger impact than just two AstraZeneca shots. The antibody levels of having two kinds of jab is nine times higher than two doses of AstraZeneca but found two doses of Pfizer offered the most protection for antibodies.
