Dr. Gagandeep Kang, a professor at Vellore Medical College and vice-president of CEPI, a global organization associated with vaccines against pandemics, even said in an interview that he has ‘never seen this and it is a very surprising move’. On the other hand, opposition leaders like Shashi Tharoor of Congress, Akhilesh Yadav of SP also put vaccine approval in the dock. How does the issue of trust arise on the vaccine in this debate?

What is the objection of experts?
After the approval of the vaccines, the All India Drug Action Network expressed a ‘shocked’ response, saying that ‘data was not given about the effect of the vaccine, transparency was not carried out, so the answer is, of course, the question. This reaction came when the vaccines approved by India’s Drug Controller General VG Somani in a statement were declared 100% safe, but there was no discussion on the data related to it.

On the other hand, Dr. Kang, one of the largest health experts in India, said in an interview to TOI that no study or data is published or presented about the effect of vaccine in trials, which is surprising. . ‘I have never seen anything like this till today.’

Are there objections to both vaccines?
Experts have questioned the process of approving both the vaccines, while Bharat Biotech has expressed reservations about Kovaxin. AIDAN, in a statement regarding the approval of Kovacine, questioned that ‘under which provisions the SEC recommended approval of this vaccine, it is not clear’.
On the other hand, Kang admitted that some information was published outside the country regarding Kovishield. Also, it said that the real problem is with Kovaxin’s data. From all the information about Kovishield, at least it can be reached here that the vaccine has been found to be more than 50% effective, but ‘where is any biotech study of Bharat Biotech?’
After the statements of scientists and Guleria, Dr. Krishna Alla, the head of Bharat Biotech, was upset.
Why did Guleria and Ella clash?
As controversy erupted in the entire case, AIIMS director Dr. Randeep Guleria said that the cormix vaccine for cirum had been approved for vaccination, when the data regarding Bharat Biotech’s vaccine was not completed as it was backed by ‘backup’ Generally, the use of ‘Emergency’ is approved. On this, Bharat Biotech chief Dr. Krishna Alla said that nothing like this happens. The vaccine is a vaccine, not a backup. People throw mud on us and we have to keep our coat clean.

Will there be mistrust among people?
The questions raised by experts about transparency and lack of data raise doubts on Kovshield but less about Kovaxin. According to Kang, ‘We are proud of our vaccine industry, but what is happening is not good for our reputation. How can we prove ourselves different from Russia and China, the answer is not available.

According to the data till Wednesday, the epidemic has infected 1.04 crore people in India and has taken more than 1.5 lakh lives, for that the vaccine should be reliable. Kang said that in these circumstances people are surprised to think how the vaccine has become so fast and in such a situation, if you do not even maintain transparency, then the experts should rethink their thinking.

At the same time, AIDAN said that while the world has seen the magnitude of the epidemic, is seeing a new strain, how will such approval build confidence in decision-making units on scientific basis? How to understand the scientific logic of approving a vaccine that has not been completed yet?
How can you expect people to blindly trust you? You have to win the trust … We are getting half the incomplete information about the trials from the press. It is not clear from whose role in the trials and what is being studied.During the time of vaccine trials, quoting experts such as Amar Jessani, Editor of Indian Journal of Medical Ethics and Bioethics Researcher Anant Bhan, said that India needs to be transparent about vaccine trials. Now even after approval, the debate is that if vaccine development and trials are successful, then why are the details not being told, as companies and developers all over the world published the studies.
