Dr. Ella was in Paris as a speaker at Viva Technology 2022, where India was declared the Country of the Year. It is to be known that in January this year, the Drug Controller of India had given permission to Bharat Biotech to conduct a standalone phase III trial on its nasal corona vaccine. On the booster dose of Kovid-19, Dr. Ella said that those who have taken the second dose must definitely take the booster dose.
He said, “A booster dose of a vaccine gives immunity. I always say that a booster dose is a miracle dose for every vaccination. Even in the first children, two doses do not give much immunity, but the third dose in children Gives an amazing response to . It has to be controlled more intelligently.”
