Wave 3 will be due to such mismanaged vaccination. 

 

Pretty much. Every major city needs to start drive-in vaccinations, like Mumbai. That seems like the only logical solution to this problem. Even in centres which are managed better, people just don't follow social distancing norms.

Kerala runs on propaganda, after every 3 months they beat Covid successfully.

Now apparently, Covishield vial has one extra dose, which Kerala nurses make use of.

 

sauce

This is not medically approved practice. As already said that the overfit is because of the volume variation standard and you can't guarantee that amount of the dose left will be enough. Plus, 0.5-0.6ml of overfit? This is never heard before.

I still don’t understand one thing 

India needs patent wavers internationally for Covishield 

 

But what exactly is stopping them from giving compulsory licences to every farma for CoVaxin?!?

 

why isn’t India producing more of that?!?

I assume you have seen many people of the opposition and even media chanting for this.

But apart from SII, BB, Panacea, BE, Zydus there aren't any manufacturing centres which can produce vaccine, not only Covaxin but be any other.

All of the manufacturing capability of the above labs are booked.

Also BB is not the only one with the BSL-3 Lab, many companies have it ex: Biocon but that is not enough for production of vaccines.

Haffkine is undergoing some serious changes in order to meet the production protocol, even then many experts are doubting its legibility.

 

Quite simply, these are vaccines, not paracetamol.

Current one is 3 shot. Their 2 shot one is still in trials. Could be the cheapest one too so for private hosya d clinics it makes sense. 

The vaccine itself is of 3 doses but they are also testing an injection-less method which might be able to deliver it in 2 doses, I think it will work out and will be approved as well.

You want to challenge them, be my guest.

They do these kind of gimmicks, it makes them feel superior to rest of the country.

 

I mean Indians are fascinated with achievements. We had people who claimed making petrol from herbs, make drones from waste, getting placed in NASA after doing some stupid engineering.

Claimed? Isn't biofuel/biodiesel legit? My friend owned his own bio diesel pump and claimed it was as good as the real stuff for a lower price.

Can anyone ELI5 two points

 

1) How did we go from there largest producer of vaccine and donating it to other countries to having such a shortage they we more need to import them in a matter of 2 months?

 

2) How are we doing worse in terms of COVID patients and deaths compared to even ultra poor African countries? Do they have better vaccine availability compared to us?

This is f**king depressing. So many people I know are no more. Feel like people are just dropping like flies right now. 

 

Had a difficult conversation with my Uncle this morning. He called and wanted to tell me about his accounts and his property and how it should be handled when he's gone. I didn't know what to say aside from agree. :(

Yeah man, it's f**king depressing. I've also lost so many people in my extended family. The mental health issues people are having (or will have in the future) is unimaginable. :(

I never denied it, but Kerala able to extract 11th dose from the vial every time is questionable.

I will be perfectly fine even if they manage to be at 0 wastage, it will be still an achievement.

Bhai thund rakh. figuratively and very near to what I said

 

7338806/10 = 73388 extra fill doses

 

7338806 + 73388  = 7412194 <7426164

Which means they extracted minimum 1 extra dose and sometimes 2.
