Data from the animal trials of Covaxin, India's first indigenous Covid vaccine candidate being developed by Bharat Biotech and ICMR, is yet to be peer-reviewed.
Intradermal vaccine delivery, if proven effective, could make Covaxin shots cheaper since they require a lesser amount of vaccine, which also means more people can get vaccinated.
Twelve trial sites are testing the ICMR-Bharat Biotech-developed Covid vaccine candidate. Last month, ICMR spurred controversy by setting a 15 Aug-deadline for finishing trial.
The $1 Rotavac may be its crowning glory but Bharat Biotech has a diverse repertoire that includes BioHib, India’s only indigenously developed influenza vaccine.
Haryana Health Minister Anil Vij said the trials have begun at Rohtak's Post-Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences, and the first 3 subjects have 'tolerated' the vaccine well.
Dr Balram Bhargava’s letter expediting Covid vaccine trials was slammed, but current & ex-colleagues highlight both his ‘impetuosity’ & ‘impeccable integrity’.

Many really smart people now share the position that playing cricket with Pakistan is politically, strategically and morally wrong. It is just a poor appreciation of competitive sport.
How about humans? Let ICMR not meddle in clinical trial by calling shots much before the analysis of data. In a hurry, a good product may give false negative, if trial done in a hurry?
