What are the other covid vaccines undergoing trials at SII & BB? I think Sputnik is being made by Dr Reddy's here so hopefully it'll be passed soon too

 

Novavax trials are to be started, SII will manufacture it.

I've been applying minoxidil since about a year now. No side effects and some good results. I was rapidly losing hair but now I have normal density hair which is great. 

Minoxidil doesn't have these nasty side effects as far as I know. 

Minoxidil is good if it works for you but need to be very consistent.

Baldness runs in my family but fortunately I haven't seen it in me till now, could get lucky.

But in case it surfaces then I am going straight for full transplant.

Sputnik can get emergency approval anyday now. It has already signed with other manufacturers so just a matter of time.

Zycov is from Cadilla and since CA has is a giant and has its own pipeline from trials to manufacturing to distribution, June end seems a decent bet.

Novavax trials are going and SII expects to manufacture it by Aug.

 

All three vaccines are giving excellent results.

Side effects of excessive minoxidil and finasteride usage :-

Why is this exactly? Is it one shot or something else? Haven't been following any news about it ever since world media declared it as a meme vaccine.

I would be careful in taking such medicines. I got a transplant done and doctor told me to take these meds. I could see some issues in 2-3 weeks itself. Stopped after that. Yes, once you stop, things generally get back to normal, but it still freaked me out

kitna kharcha ata hai bhai Transplant me :fear:

It's a 2 shot vaccine which uses 2 different serotypes and results of P1P2/P3 are quite good. It has followed all of the regulations perfectly because of DRL and technology transfer to Panacea is done and is underway for 4-5 more manufacturers.

Total volume is around 500M mark to be delivered by Aug-Sept with production underway.

It did seem like meme vaccine but that's how polio vaccine began as well. Dr. Albert Sabin, a Russian, developed the oral version of the vaccine and gave it directly to his family members and then exposed them to virus because the trials were not being sanctioned.

 

Sputnik on the other hand is not cutting any corners since the trials began.

I don’t get such hype for vaccine.. we don’t even know how effective it will be with covid variants.. one preprint already showed that it’s less effective against spike variants..

Source for vaccine wastage by MH ?

 

What real time vaccine data are we talking about ? Again, any source except HV's passive aggressive letter yday ?

I read it somewhere not sure but wastage was there. Also Trust me few days ago we had ample doses but people werent willing, now every second person i meet wants to be vaccinated so shortage bound to happen

I will have to find the link but their latest study showed that although it is less effective against SA variant but efficiency is still pegged above Covaxin and upto par or better than Pfizer and Moderna.

Must be black marketeering or they're creating artificial shortage for their incompetence or stocks must've been taken by local MLA/MP for their respective wards which is leading to a shortage in mumbai and pune.

 

As much as I want the govt to open vaccine for all without this cowin thing, I think they did the right thing with this or else hoarder's would have piled up like they did with remdec and plasma. I know a guy under 45 who got the vaccine through setting, must be many many more. 

 

The cowin app/website or the tab in aarogya setu app is excellent btw, gives realtime data upto district level, including the brand which has been used and the age group.

Yeah good job and should be done with everything. Bring it online .

So after 4 pages we're back to the same old conspiracy of how MH is the worst governed state in the world. 

Is it a conspiracy though? My city has second to none cases and we are told to sit at home for no reason?
