vaccine will be very beneficial for those aged below 18, reported news agency ANI. “Sero survey by ICMR stated almost 60% children were infected with Covid.
The death rate is two in a million in children, which is very low," said Dr Sanjay K Rai, a professor at Centre for Community Medicine, All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS). “There is no such study to justify that vaccine will be very beneficial for children," added Rai.
He noted that globally it is observed that SARS-CoV-2 is not fatal in children. "Only a very mild infection is present. In a few children, it's milder than the common cold.
Currently, we do not have any justification on whether Zydus Cadila, Bharat Biotech, Pfizer or Moderna...which is the mildest.
