The World Health Organization has recommended using the vaccine developed by the University of Oxford and AstraZeneca even in countries tackling new variants of coronavirus.
Some new forms of the virus appear to make vaccines less effective.
The WHO also says the vaccine can be used in people aged over 65, which some countries have advised against.
Spacing out the two doses, as is happening in the UK, makes the vaccine more effective, it advises.

Rihanna's clothing line, "Fenty Fashion House," is being suspended indefinitely, luxury conglomerate LVMH announced today. LVMH confirmed the development exclusively to WWD via a brief statement saying: “Rihanna and LVMH have jointly made the decision to put on hold the ready-to-wear activity, based in Europe, pending better conditions.”
The fashion line which was launched in 2019 made history being the first luxury brand run by a black woman. It was also only the second luxury fashion house started from scratch by the French conglomerate LVMH – after Christian Lacroix. In 2014, she became the creative director of Puma and has also created collections for British store River Island.
The shuttering of the fashion arm of Fenty will not affect its side projects, the lingerie arm Savage X Fenty and Fenty Skin, which are both considered success in their field: the former made $108m (£78m) last year and the latter, which is available in Boots, has made £26m in four months, according to WWD.
Fenty’s final collection, a collaboration with the footwear designer Amina Muaddi, was in November last year and its last Instagram post was on 1 January.
In a related development, the residence of Nobel Laureate, Professor WOLE SOYINKA, located in Abeokuta Ogun State, was neither attacked nor invaded by suspected herdsmen.
His son, Dr OLAOKUN SOYINKA confirmed this in a statement, after rumours had made the rounds that his home had been under attack and invaded by cows.
He, however, confirmed that cows did stray into the land belonging to the Nobel Laureate.
The state Commissioner of Police, Mr. EDWARD AJOGUN who visited the residence following the report, explained that three cows indeed strayed into the compound of the literary icon.
While giving an assurance of adequate protection of life and property, the state police boss described the incident as a trespass on the part of the herders.
