Nanoparticles? edit
Does it use nanoparticles? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.38.189.222 (talk) 20:02, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- This page is not a forum to discuss the topic. It does insofar as a virus is a nanoparticle; viral vector vaccine. Pabsoluterince (talk) 21:59, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- We're talking about nanoparticle lipids obviously. So, does it use nanoparticles? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.38.189.222 (talk) 22:03, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
- The virus it uses as a vector is an adenovirus, which is nonenveloped, meaning it doesn't have a lipid envelope (unlike enveloped viruses, like the coronavirus). Which means the answer is no. 188.159.240.15 (talk) 13:34, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

Verifiability issues edit
It's in category "Withdrawn drugs" but I can't find any sourced content in the article regarding its alleged withdrawal. (t · c) buidhe 04:37, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
- Nothing about it here,[1] and the implication is it's being used in parts of the world where the mRNA ones are tricky to store. Bon courage (talk) 05:20, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
- It has been banned in at least Australia. I'd assume the distinction between banned and withdrawn is to be made, as the manufacturer didn't make this decision. Moreover, I don't know how we treat that category when it has only been withdrawn from some markets (see Nefazodone for a similar instance for withdrawn from some markets and available in others).
- That being said, perhaps the category should be reassessed now. Kimen8 (talk) 17:17, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
Developer edit
Should we change the developer from Oxford University to Jenner Institute? Pro translator (talk) 16:41, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
Apparently withdrawn in EU entirely now? edit

Reuters says: "AstraZeneca to withdraw COVID-19 vaccine globally, Telegraph reports". Big if true, I guess (?) jp×g🗯️ 21:24, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
