Serum Institute of India has written to the Union Health Ministry seeking the inclusion of its Covid vaccine Covovax in the CoWIN portal as a heterologous booster dose for adults, official sources said on Wednesday.
The letter was written by Prakash Kumar Singh, Director, Government and Regulatory Affairs at Serum Institute of India (SII), they said.
National Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (NTAGI) is likely to hold a meeting soon to decide on the matter.
The Drug Controller General of India (DCGI) on January 16 approved market authorisation for Covovax as a heterologous booster dose for adults who have been administered two doses of either Covishield or Covaxin.
Its approval was based on recommendations by the subject expert committee (SEC) of the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation.
The DCGI approved Covovax for restricted use in emergency situations in adults on December 28, 2021, in the 12-17 age group on March 9, 2022, and also in children aged seven to 11 years on June 28 last year subject to certain conditions.
Covovax is manufactured through technology transfer from Novavax.
It has been approved by the European Medicines Agency for conditional marketing authorization and was granted emergency-use listing by the World Health Organization (WHO) on December 17, 2021.
In August 2020, US-based vaccine maker Novavax Inc. had earlier announced a license agreement with the SII for the development and commercialization of NVX-CoV2373, its COVID-19 vaccine candidate in India and low-and-middle-income countries.

The percentage is your Month-over-Month growth rate. The formula for Month-over-Month growth rate is: Percent change = (Month 2 – Month 1) / Month 1 * 100 However, there’s much more to understanding your monthly growth than just extracting the most recent increase. It’s also important to understand the context around the MoM metric so you can use it effectively.
