New Delhi: The All India Institute of Medical Sciences Director Dr Randeep Singh Guleria on Sunday praised the Covid vaccines developed in India and said that the vaccines are safe and there is no room for concern.
He congratulated the scientists and lauded the work done by the Indian Laboratories in inventing the vaccine.
“The research has been done here and it’s truly from the scratch and it is Indian Vaccine. It’s a great moment, especially because unlike past where we had to rely on importing various products like PPE or N95; now we have vaccines which are being manufactured in India itself. we do not have to rely on vaccines coming from outside. They are cost-effective and easy to administer between 2 to 8 degrees centigrade”, said Guleria.
In an interview given to the ANI, Guleria said that “It is important to understand that when we look at any vaccine, safety is paramount and therefore a vaccine goes through various stages of studying to make sure that it is safe”.
The AIIMS Director also cautioned that people with disabilities and disorders have higher chances of developing the disease and may get missed out. He said that the aim is to decrease mortality by vaccinating more vulnerable group and then start vaccinating enough number of people so that good amount will have immunity against the virus.
