ICMR Director General Balram Bhargava said that two Indian indigenous vaccines are being made. 2 companies in India are conducting clinical studies for vaccines on 1000-1000 people at different sites. They have been tested on mice and rabbits. The data were presented to the Drug Controller General (DGCI), after which both of them got approval to start early-stage human trials earlier this month.
Dr. Balram Bhargava said that 60 percent of the world’s vaccines (such as rubella, measles, polio) are supplied from India, whether in Africa, Europe, Southeast Asia, or anywhere else. Therefore, India is considered to be an important player for manufacturing vaccines for supply in the world. He said that India is considered to be a mine of medicines in the world. About 60 percent of the drugs used in the United States are of Indian origin. This is probably known by many people in the world. So they are in touch with India.
