Indigenous Covaxin Is Also Effective Against A New Form Of Virus

Indigenous Covaxin is also effective against a new form of virus: Covaxin update. The fully developed Indigenous Covaxin is also effective on the new form of coronavirus introduced in Britain. This information has been revealed in a new study.

Covaxin is developed jointly by ICMR and Bharat Biotech. According to an article released on the website Bio Archive, the study was carried out by removing serum from the blood of 26 people taking Covaxin.

Study done on the new format of the virus thrive in Britain

Antibodies against the corona are present after taking the vaccine in the blood serum. All these serums were tested by adding new forms of virus from UK and virus already found in India.

Tests found that the antibodies present in the serum of a person taking covaxin are equally effective on both the Indian and British forms of corona and are capable of completely eradicating them.

The effectiveness of covaxine will remain

It is worth noting that covaxine is prepared by inactivating Corona’s live virus, which produces antibodies against the entire virus.

At the same time, the vaccine produced by Pfizer, Moderna and AstraZeneca produces antibodies against spike proteins from the corona virus.

The British form of the virus has detected 23 mutations in spike proteins. Currently, these mutations have not been successful in completely replacing the spike protein, which is why they are effective in providing protection against spike protein-based vaccine viruses.

But in the event of more mutations in the spike protein, their effectiveness may be affected. But in such a situation the effectiveness of covaxin will remain.

17 corona vaccines are available in the world, the demand for Covishield is highest

With the introduction of vaccines worldwide, the elimination of coronavirus is now getting closer. Corona vaccination is currently underway in about 60 countries and a total of 4.17 crore dose vaccines have been administered to people.

At the same time, a total of 17 corona vaccines have been approved in different countries of the world and 12.7 billion doses have been reserved for its citizens.
