Bengaluru, Jan 19 (ANI): Karnataka Association of Resident Doctors (KARD) has demanded the government to let people choose which COVID-19 vaccine, between Pune-based Serum Institute of India’s Covishield and Hyderabad-based Bharat Biotech’s Covaxin, they want to take. “Government of India has approved Covishield and Covaxin vaccines. We have all the reports for Covishield. But, Covaxin is still in phase-III trials, where the trial is being done on healthcare workers.
