Novavax’s Covid-19 vaccine ‘Covavax’ to launch in India by September: Sources

The Serum Institute of India (SII) hopes to introduce US firm Novavax’s Indian version of the Covid-19 vaccine – ‘Covavax’ by September this year and start trials on children from July, sources said on Thursday.

The SII is hoping to introduce Covavax in the country by September which is a version of US firm Novavax’s Covid-19 vaccine, sources added.

Earlier this week, Novavax’s vaccine exhibited a 90.4 per cent overall efficacy in Phase-3 clinical trials. That puts it in the same bracket as two of the frontline vaccines being used in the US and European countries, the ones produced by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna, which had efficacy rates of 91.3 per cent and 90 per cent in Phase 3 trials, respectively.
