Covid Vaccinations

Indian-origin doctor and former COVID-19 czar of New York City, Jay Varma is facing severe criticism for lying under oath that vaccination is the sole means of stopping the spread of coronavirus.

Before the COVID pandemic, the World Health Organization (WHO) had made a list of priority infectious diseases. These were felt to pose a threat to international public health.

Covid-19 is still killing around 1,700 people a week around the world, the World Health Organization said Thursday, as it urged at-risk populations to keep up with their vaccinations against the disease.

Bharat Biotech has added the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) as co-owner of the Covid-19 vaccine patent.

Pregnant women who have been vaccinated against Covid-19 are at lower risk of having a caesarean section or experiencing hypertension, a new study said on Friday.

The Indian Council of Medical Research, or ICMR, has distanced itself from a follow-up study by two Banaras Hindu University professors that said nearly a third of 926 individuals who got the India-made Covaxin shot reported serious side-effects.

As per a social media user, Covaxin COVID vaccine can cause death after two years of vaccination. The user also claims that the Covaxin has caused the deaths of crores of people. We did the fact check and it came out to be false.

The study, led by Banaras Hindu University (BHU), claimed that Covaxin raised the rare risk of stroke, and Guillain-Barre syndrome, among others.

Nearly one-third of the individuals who received Bharat Biotech's anti-Covid vaccine Covaxin reported 'adverse events of special interest,' or AESI, according to a one-year follow-up study conducted at BHU.

AstraZeneca's Covid-19 vaccine, made in collaboration with Oxford University has been found to raise the risk of vaccine-induced immune thrombocytopenia and thrombosis (VITT) -- a rare but fatal blood clotting disorder, claimed researchers today.

In the wake of pharmaceutical giant AstraZeneca admitting in a UK court that its Covid vaccine can cause blood clots in rare cases, a group of doctors on Thursday expressed deep concern over the safety of the Covishield vaccine.

The Serum Institute - which manufactured the Covishield COVID-19 vaccine developed by British pharma giant AstraZeneca - stressed on Wednesday that all its product packaging had "disclosed all rare to very rare side-effects", including TTS.

AstraZeneca has initiated a global withdrawal of its COVID-19 vaccine, days after it was reported that the British pharmaceutical company admitted that the jab can cause rare side effects.

The Supreme Court will hear a petition on a rare side-effect associated with the COVID vaccine developed jointly by British pharma giant AstraZeneca and Oxford University, manufactured by the Serum Institute of India and sold in India as Covishield.
