Bharat Biotech&#8217;s coronavirus vaccine Covaxin had run into a controversy after it got regulatory approval for emergency use without phase-3 trial results. However, in January, the company&#8217;s Chairman and Managing Director Dr Krishna Ella clarified that the vaccine is safe and Bharat Biotech conducted trials in over 12 countries besides India.<\/p>\n<p>In the picture that PM Modi tweeted, he is seen wearing a gamcha of Assam, which is symbolic of blessings of women from the eastern state. He has been seen wearing it on many occasions. PM Modi was administered Bharat BioTech&#8217;s Covaxin by Sister P Niveda from Puducherry. The second nurse was from Kerala. The Covid-19 vaccines- Covaxin and Covishield, will be made available to the general public from today. The PM went to AIIMS without any route on the roads, thus choosing early morning to avoid inconvenience to public.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The first phase of the nationwide vaccination drive against Covid-19 had begun on January 16. The second dose of vaccine had begun from February 13.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday took the first dose of Covaxin, India&#8217;s homegrown coronavirus vaccine developed by biotechnology firm Bharat Biotech and Indian Council of Medical Research, addressing the hesitancy over the COVID-19 vaccine.
