ICMR dials down on Aug 15 vaccine date: ‘Letter to cut red tape’ | India News,The Indian Express



The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) dialed down on its August 15 deadline to launch a Covid-19 vaccine, saying its letter to hospitals shortlisted for clinical trials was “was meant to cut unnecessary red tape”. ICMR said: “The aim is to complete these phases at the earliest, so that population-based trials for efficacy could be initiated without delay.”

More than a month after the resumption of domestic flights across the country, the Ministry of Civil Aviation on Saturday asked airlines to suspend services to Kolkata from Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Nagpur, Chennai and Ahmedabad — all cities with high Covid caseload — between July 6 and July 19 following a request from the West Bengal government.

A lavish birthday bash amid the era of social distancing proved to be fatal to a top Hyderabad jeweller who died of coronavirus on Saturday. The incident sparked panic among the atleast 100 attendees who scrambled to get themselves tested at private labs in the city. The owner of another top jewellery chain, who, too, attended the party, also died due to the virus.
