India is considering full approval for two covid-19 vaccines

The Indian government’s vaccine panel has made way for two of its main covid-19 shots to receive full market approval. The committee under the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) of the Indian health ministry has recommended that the Serum Institute of India (SII) and Bharat Biotech be granted “new drug permission.” A final nod from the main drug authority is still pending, though.
