Corbevax has been cleared by the Drug Controller General of India as a heterologous covid booster. Biological E Ltd made the announcement on Saturday. Let’s see, what is Heterologous Covid booster?
Any adult who has previously taken Covishield or Covacin vaccine will be able to take another vaccine, Corbevax, as a booster dose. This means that he does not have to take the same dose that he took earlier as a booster dose.
This is the first time that carbex has been considered a heterologous vaccine. This means that for the first time in India, the carbax booster vaccine for mixed and match has been cleared. This permission is being given to all those above 18 years of age.
Physicians also welcomed the initiative. According to some of them, this heterologous vaccine is unlikely to cause any side effects. People will benefit from this.
Details are coming.
