The Drugs Controller General of India last month allowed vaccine maker Serum Institute to enroll kids aged 7 to 11 years for its trial of US drugmaker Novavax's COVID-19 vaccine.
Bharat Biotech said on Wednesday it had submitted data from its Covid-19 vaccine trial in children aged 2 to 18 years to the drug regulator, becoming the country's first company to have tested its shot in very young children.
