PM chairs meeting; number of new cases crosses 1 lakh.

The Russia-made Sputnik V vaccine may be cleared for emergency use in India within 10 days, a highly placed official confirmed to The Hindu on condition of anonymity.

The possible approval for a third vaccine candidate comes as Prime Minister Narendra Modi chaired a high-level meeting on Sunday to review the situation and the on-going vaccination programme with the number of new cases crossing 1 lakh — surpassing the figures recorded in September 2020.

The meeting, attended by senior officials at the Centre including the secretaries of the Home Ministry, Health and Department of Biotechnology, Principal Scientific Adviser, Director General of Indian Council of Medical Research, was of the view that the spike in cases was due to “severe decline in people complying with Covid-appropriate behaviour.”

On April 1, Dr. Reddy’s Labs, which is conducting a trial on the Sputnik V’s suitability on India, was reportedly denied authorisation because the Subject Expert Committee of the Drug Controller General of India asked for more data on the vaccine’s stability.

Sputnik V, developed by Gamaleya Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology, is a two-dose adenovirus based vector vaccine, similar in design to AstraZeneca’s Covishield.
