'Bharat Bio to produce 10 mn doses of nasal covid vaccine'

In an interview, co-founder and managing director Suchitra Ella said the company has bulk drug substance to produce more than 200 million Covaxin doses, which can be supplied when needed in light of reports indicating vaccine shortages, and the potential need for a fourth dose for the high-risk population of first responders, and those with co-morbidities. Bharat Biotech has received new orders for iNCOVACC from states like Maharashtra and private hospitals. The company previously suffered financial losses after having to destroy tens of millions of Covaxin vaccine doses due to insufficient demand. Edited excerpts:

Following a surge in fresh covid vases, the Centre has urged people to complete their vaccination if not done? What is your thought?

As an advocate of public health, we support the government’s recommendations on vaccinations and urge those who have not yet been vaccinated to get vaccinated.
