Covaxin gets WHO approval
The Emergency Use Listing (EUL) of Covaxin, manufactured by Bharat Biotech, finally received approval by the Technical Advisory Group (TAG) of the World Health Organization (WHO).
The WHO clearance will be a significant step in the acceptance of the vaccine by foreign countries and make overseas travel easy for people who have taken this vaccine.
As shared before, data submitted by Bharat Biotech had revealed that Phase III clinical trials of Covaxin had demonstrated an efficacy rate of 77.8 per cent. It is the second-most widely used coronavirus vaccine in India after Serum Institute of India’s Covishield. The expression of interest for EUL was submitted in April by Bharat Biotech. Covid-19 vaccines manufactured by Pfizer-BioNTech, US pharma majors Johnson & Johnson, Moderna, China’s Sinopharm and Oxford-AstraZeneca have been granted emergency use listing by WHO till now.
