Latest scientific data on a single dose of Oxford vaccine finds:
- Vaccine efficacy 76% from day 22 to day 90.
- 100% effective at stopping hospitalisations from day 22 to 90.
Antibody levels were "maintained during this period with minimal waning by day 90."

The analysis also shows that higher vaccine efficacy is obtained with a longer interval between the first and second dose.
The data appears to support the government's strategy of opting for one dose and then providing the second dose 12 weeks later.
