Sources reveal that the experts panel will talk to the drug regulator after considering the matters. The special thing is that a vaccine can be allowed to use emergency only when it is safe and effective. However, the last approval will be given only after successful trial and examination of all data. Britain became the first country to allow Pfizer for emergency use last week. It was being said that this vaccine is up to 95 percent effective.

Significantly, experts are worried about the problems coming in Pfizer’s transport. Pfizer needs to be kept at a temperature of -70 ° C at all times. However, the company has assured that it is ready for such challenges. Explain that after the emergency approval from DCGI, the vaccine can be applied only for a limited time and for certain categories of people.
