Vaccine war: Bharat Biotech chief lashes out at Serum

Bharat Biotech founder and chairman Dr Krishna Ella on Monday lashed out at detractors who criticised the speed at which emergency use authorisation (EUA) was given to Covaxin, the company’s Covid-19 vaccine. Ella said, “We do 200% honest clinical trials and yet we receive backlash. If I am wrong, tell me. Some companies have branded me (our vaccine) like 'water'. I want to deny that. We are scientists."
