Has the union government hastily granted permissions to Serum Institute and Bharat Biotech for the large scale preparation of vaccines for the Covid 19? According to the observers the answer is 'yes'. Particularly, Bharat Biotech had to encounter severe criticism from the critics. The critics said the vaccine is nothing more than water. However, the Chairman and MD of Bharat Biotech lashed out the criticism affirming that the vaccine would be 200% safe to the recipients.
In what could be said an embarrassing development ahead of the vaccine distribution across India is that a 45-year-old Covid volunteer, who had been vaccinated on December 12, died of intense illness on December 21.
The postmortem report of Gandhi Medical Hospital, Bhopal cited the reason, "cardiac respiratory failure as a result of suspected poisoning".
Obviously, suspicions were triggered upon the Covaxin's effect on the death of the patient. The company's officials, however, hit out at the critics clarifying that there are several factors that would cause adverse effects during the clinical trials.
