The paper is the assessment of the evidence at the time of writing. As new evidence or data emerges, SAGE updates its advice accordingly.

This paper should be read alongside the corresponding contribution from University of Warwick Covid vaccine impact forecast, and the SPI-M-O: Consensus Statement on COVID-19, both also released under SAGE 76.

Both this and the corresponding paper from Warwick consider the potential impact on the epidemic under a number of scenarios exploring vaccine roll-out and efficacy assumptions, and relaxation of NPIs.
