Dr. Peter Hotez's halal COVID-19 vaccine approved for use in Indonesia

A vaccine developed by Dr. Peter Hotez โ€” dean of the National School of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine and co-director of the Center for Vaccine Development at Texas Childrenโ€™s Hospital โ€” has been approved for use in Indonesia.

The approval of IndoVac, as the new version of Hotezโ€™ Corbevax is called, is important for Muslim-majority countries, because it was the first halal vaccine, Hotez said. The vaccine was approved for emergency authorization use in Indonesia as a primary vaccine for adults.

By Hotezโ€™s count, Corbevax has already found its way to 80 million people in India, including 70 million adolescents. The hope is that IndoVac will replicate the Corbevaxโ€™s India success in Indonesia, he said.
