JAKARTA: China's Sinovac Biotech COVID-19 vaccine was 98 per cent effective at preventing death and 96 per cent effective at preventing hospitalisation among a group of inoculated Indonesian medical staff, a study conducted by the country's health ministry has found.

"We see data from the taskforce that the incidence of morbidity and mortality for health workers tends to decrease," health ministry official Siti Nadia Tarmizi said at the news conference. The promising findings come after Indonesia's phase 3 trials showed the vaccine was 65 per cent effective. Trials in Turkey showed it was 91.25 per cent effective, while researchers in Brazil said it was 50.4 per cent effective at preventing symptomatic infections.

Almost 9 million people have been fully inoculated so far, according to the health ministry, with Indonesia aiming to vaccinate 181 million people by January, 2022.
