The vaccine was on average 70 per cent effective in foiling the disease, according to results from phase three trials.
It’s unknown yet whether New Zealand was in the line for this vaccine.
But New Zealand has already signed two agreements for other vaccines- the Pfizer and BioNTech vaccine along with the vaccine from Janssen Pharmaceutica.
Qantas chief executive officer Alan Joyce on Monday night said vaccination would be mandatory for passengers.
“We are looking at changing our terms and conditions to say that for international travellers, we will ask people to have a vaccination before they can get on the aircraft,” he said.

A 7.5m tall replica of Nasa's Space Launch System (SLS), made from 450,000 Lego bricks, will go on display in the new lego exhibition.
The rocket, which certified professional Lego builder Ryan “The Brickman” McNaught spent 500 hours constructing, is one of more than 35 giant Lego models set to be showcased at the exhibition Brickman Awesome: Epic Lego Creations.

Do you support exotic animals being traded as pets to be confined with chains, in cages, etc? As upsetting as this article is, there has to be demand for supply.

Located at 24 Omana Avenue, Epsom, Eden Garden boasts the largest and most varied collection of camellias in New Zealand. There are also a number of one-off projects, such as planting Tulip bulbs for the Tulip display (which takes place in the Spring - late August). After Tulip time, the perennial garden is planted for a wonderful vibrant summer display.
The five and a half acres take around half an hour or up to half a day, depending upon your schedule.
There is wheelchair access, parking for up to 40 vehicles, and dogs are allowed on a leash.
The cafe is open from 10 am - 3.00 pm Wednesday to Sunday, year-round and you can bring your own picnic.
