I dont know about 'more' honestly. That would be to believe Pfizer / Moderna have sat on info.

Perhaps not the best term to use, but they published the most favourable outcome rather than the full range.

I dont think that's true. The Lancet went over this and showed the Pfizer confidence interval data - it was far more impressive than AstraZenica's.

AstraZeneca boss: We think we've figured out winning formula for COVID vaccine
The government has ordered 100 million doses of the vaccine, with around 40 million expected to be available by the end of March.

But Pascal Soriot, chief executive of AstraZeneca, told the Sunday Times: "We think we have figured out the winning formula and how to get efficacy that, after two doses, is up there with everybody else.AstraZeneca boss: We think we've figured out winning formula for COVID vaccine
The government has ordered 100 million doses of the vaccine, with around 40 million expected to be available by the end of March.
Sorry if already posted.
Mr Soriot said the earlier results had been seen by the pharmaceutical company as "positive", adding: "They meet the criteria established by regulators around the world.
"We assumed people would be a bit disappointed, that's for sure, but we didn't expect that storm."
"I can't tell you more because we will publish at some point."
The data from the Oxford/AstraZeneca trial has not been as clear as the data from the Pfizer one, which is most likely why approval has been delayed.
Comments by the chief executive of AstraZeneca suggests regulators have been given fresh data, but it is not clear that this information would support plans like the one suggested by Tony Blair, which involve giving children one dose, nor that it will be as efficacious as the other vaccines.
Put another way: there is still some uncertainty about the Oxford vaccine.
Not exactly reassuring any of that. Basically: if you can get a Pfizer vaccine, take it.
I'm reading it that it hasn't been approved as of yet but they have given more data now and expect it to be as accurate as the Pfizer. Lets hope so because it will get a game changer due to the cheaper cost and it is stored at room changer. Will allow poorer countries to buy it for their population as well. Would you take the Oxford vaccine even if it was only 70%. I would but im fully expecting it to be the same efficiency as Pfizer.
Beautiful piece of writing about the awful loss of lives and the loved ones they have left behind.

Richy rich still continuing to lie about the Tories "success" in dealing with the pandemic, and persisting with the "we're all in this together" nonsense.
On the vaccine itself I have been told by my consultant, that I will get the Pfizer one, probably by the end of Jan...made up with that.

They were related to totally different points.
I had only heard on the news at the time of posting that the cases found in Canada were of people who hadn't travelled to the UK.
