New Delhi: The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) has created a portal containing all information related to vaccine development in the country.
Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan will launch the ICMR vaccine portal on Monday, DD News reported.
In the first stage, the portal will have sections like COVID-19 vaccine, India’s initiative, International Symposium and FAQ for the general public (which would be presented in regional languages).
It will also fetch information related to COVID-19 vaccine from the World Health Organisation (WHO).
With time, the portal will be strengthened with data available for all the vaccines used to prevent various diseases.
It may be noted that three COVID-19 vaccine candidates are in different phases of clinical studies in India.
