cnn's phil black joins me here in london with the latest. finally, the good news. tell me about the vaccine and when they expect it to be rolled out. >> reporter: so very quickly, they expect it to roll out with deliveries in the next day or two and vaccines next week. what's so exciting about this vaccine is that it is logistically convenient. it doesn't need to be kept at deep cold storage temperatures as the pfizer vaccine does, for example. it can effectively be kept in the fridge, which means that it can be moved around and stored relatively easily. rolled out more widely. so you start to get it to more people and that happens at a much faster rate than has been possible up until now. trying to maximize that potential the government has also announced a shift in tactics. instead of trying to get two doses of vaccines to people as quickly as possible. the plan now is to delay the second dose of the vaccine but to prioritize rolling it out to as many people as possible as the vaccine stock becomes available. the logic there is although you are not giving the max

what do we know, phil? >> reporter: in terms of the new strain, broadly speaking that is research that is still being carried out by everyone developing vaccines, but the consensus view appears to be among the scientific community there is no reason to believe the vaccine will be less effective against the new highly transmissible variant. when it comes to the oxford university astrazeneca vaccine specifically, its effectiveness has been controversial. the headline figure, top figure is that it is 70% effective at ensuring that there are no symptomatic infections from covid-19 and perhaps more crucially, no one wond the 14 day trial group has hospital treatment. 70% is an average. over the course of the trial there was a mistake. oxford university and astrazeneca say it was a happy mistake. a small amount of people had been given a smaller dose, half a dose initially. when they followed that group through what they found is they had greater effectiveness. it was 90% as opposed to the bulk of the trial group
