Covovax, Biological E - India's new Covid-19 vaccines

India has ramped up its coronavirus vaccine production amid a deadly second wave of infections that is now abating. It is preparing to use a local version of Novavax vaccine, which will be produced by the Serum Institute of India.

The vaccine was more than 90% effective in a late-stage US-based clinical trial, according to the company. The government has also ordered 300 million doses of another vaccine from Indian firm Biological E.

India has so far given more than 260 million doses of three approved vaccines - Covishield, Covaxin and Sputnik V.

With the total case tally of more than 29 million, India is now only behind the United States which has reported over 33 million cases. With 17.5 million cases, Brazil is now at number three.

The country is also only the third in the world to record more than 300,000 deaths - behind the US and Brazil.
