Indian firm to test Covid vaccine in 3 weeks; if successful, drug won't be patented
New Delhi: Indian vaccine major Serum Institute of India said on Sunday that it plans to start production of the COVID-19 vaccine developed by Oxford University in the next two to three weeks.
If human clinical trials of the vacine are successful, the product should be available in the market by October.
The company had earlier said it will not patent any COVID-19 vaccine which it develops.
Asked about the decision, Poonawalla reiterated, "We will not patent Serum's vaccine for COVID-19 and will make it available for all to produce and sell, not just in India but across the world."
