The National Institute of Health (NIH) of the USA has said that India’s homegrown vaccine ‘Covaxin’ can neutralize both Alpha and Delta variants of COVID-19. Covaxin has been developed by Bharat Biotech in collaboration with Indian Council of Medical Reasearch (ICMR).
NIH said: ” Results of two studies of blood serum from people who received Covaxin suggest that the vaccine generates antibodies which effectively neutralise the Alpha and Delta variants of SARS-CoV-2.” While stating that the vaccine is ‘safe and well-tolerated,’ NIH added: ” Unpublished interim results from phase 3 trials indicate that Covaxin is 78% efficient against symptomatic disease while its efficacy against severe Covid-19 is 100%. Further, it has shown 70% efficacy against asymptomatic infection with Sars-CoV-2, the Covid-19 causing virus.”
NIH further said an adjuvant developed with funding from it has contributed to Covaxin’s success, describing the shot as “highly efficacious.” An adjuvant is a substance formulated as part of a vaccine to boost immune responses and enhance its effectiveness.
