VOICED : OMS homologa vacuna anticovid Covaxin, del laboratorio indio Bharat Biotech

The World Health Organization (WHO) has validated the Indian-made Covaxin vaccine, developed by Bharat Biotech, for emergency use. Covaxin shows a 78% efficacy rate and is recommended for individuals aged 18 and above. It requires two doses four weeks apart and is suitable for low-resource countries due to its easy storage requirements. This marks the first time a vaccine fully developed and manufactured in India has received WHO approval, joining other vaccines like Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna. The approval aids in international recognition and supports global vaccination efforts, particularly in poorer countries through the Covax system.
