Geneva: The official said the agency’s assessment of Covaxin Made-in-India was in the advanced stage and the decision on emergency authorization for Bharat Biotech vaccine is probably in mid-September.

He hopes they will begin to evaluate the vaccine made by Sanofi Pasteur and Novavaks in September.
“There are many, many vaccines in the final stage of the pipe,” said Simao.
