The final clinical results showed 62% efficacy when administered in a single dose and 90% when patients take a half dose followed by a full dose one month later. This means that the vaccine is on average 70% effective, the company said, adding that it should be ready to supply hundreds of mns of doses after getting regulatory approval.
