A booster shot of the COVID-19 vaccine can reduce the rate of severe illness to 0.1 percent, according to a latest study among Shanghai's novel coronavirus cases in the last half a year.

Vaccination is greatly related to the proportion of serious symptoms among coronavirus patients, Dr Zhang Wenhong, head of Shanghai's COVID-19 treatment team and director of the National Center for Infectious Diseases, said, claiming "The dawn of our victory over the pandemic has appeared."

His team finished the analysis on a total of 2,266 local and imported COVID-19 cases reported in Shanghai over the last six months on Monday.
