Preparations for the next sero survey completed: Dr. VK Paul
Dr. VK Paul, Member (Health) of NITI Aayog, who was present at the press conference, said that the preparations for the National Sero Survey have been completed. ICMR will start work for the next sero survey this month. He said that if we want to protect our geographical areas, then relying only on a national serosurvey will not work, we have to encourage the states also to do serosurvey. At the same time, Dr. Paul said that there may be some similarities and some differences in the regulatory system of every country for not getting permission for emergency use of Bharat Bioket's anti-corona vaccine by USFDA (US Food and Drug Administration).

He said that we respect it. The scientific framework is the same but its specifics depend on the context.

Our production capacity is strong. Dr. Paul said that we expect our producers to respect it too. This is not going to have any effect on our program. Our regulator has allowed it. We have enough data on Phase III trials and safety. I have been told that the Phase III trial will be published in seven to eight days.
