Meanwhile, Bharat Biotech, the company that manufactures the corona vaccine in India, has written a letter to the World Health Organization (WHO) applying to put Covaxin on the list of emergency use. If all goes well, it will be beneficial that people who have got the vaccine in India will be able to travel abroad till September.

Bharat Biotech has expressed hope in this regard that between July and September, Covaxin will be approved by the regulator. If this happens, then the people who got it installed will be able to travel abroad.
