“The last 18 months are difficult.
I haven’t struggled for anything in the last 25 years (because he founded Bharat Biotech),” he said.
“I feel as if I have lost 10 years of peace in this battle.” He said that even though Covaxin was not the first vaccine that had been developed by his company, it was certainly the first time Bharat Biotech was under a constant spotlight.
“For Covaxin, we work with a 1,000-liter fermentor with a highly high life virus density so that it is enough to infect the entire India.
It is dangerous.” Indicates that every death is due to infection in the company, it is also when there is no vaccine, it will be a disaster, Explain: “Today, we are vaccinated but there are no vaccines.
So, for about 4-5 months, around 20-25 important employees we cannot go to their family.
We took several apartments close to our factory (Genome Valley, Hyderabad) And put them there until we have a study of animal challenges that show vaccines offer 100% protection.
“So how does he deal with intense supervision? Ella said she turned like she reached the house and didn’t take any call.
