]]>The post Centre issues guidelines to help people identify authentic vaccines appeared first on The Edge Media.
]]>According to the Union ministry of health and family welfare, 684.6 million vaccine doses against Covid-19 have been administered so far in the country. “With the administration of 71,61,760 vaccine doses in the last 24 hours, India’s COVID-19 vaccination coverage has surpassed the cumulative figure of 68.46 Crore (68,46,69,521) on Sunday,” the health ministry said.
Here are the various parameters to identify if a Covid-19 vaccine is original:
How to check whether the Covishield vaccine is original?
* The SII product’s label shade is dark green and the colour of the aluminium flip-off seal is dark green.
*The brand name with the trademark is mentioned on the original vaccine.
*The lettering is printed in special white ink to be more clear and readable.
* The text font of the Generic name is in un-bold
* Overprinted with “CGS NOT FOR SALE”.
* The SII logo is printed at a unique angle and position which can be identified by only a select few who are aware of the exact details.
* The lettering is printed in special white ink to be more clear and readable.
* The entire label has been given a special honeycomb effect, which is visible only at a specific angle.
*The honeycomb design has been altered slightly at strategic locations and certain additional special elements added to the texture design. They are not visible to people in general but those who know about the subtle changes can easily check and verify the authenticity of the label and vial.
How to check Covaxin’s authenticity?
* There is an invisible UV helix or a DNA-like structure on the Covaxin label. It is only visible under UV light
* The micro text hidden in the label claims Dots, which is written as Covaxin
* There is a green foil effect in X of Covaxin.
* There is a holographic effect on Covaxin
How to find out if Sputnik V vaccine is not fake?
* There are different labels for the two bulk manufacturing sites where the Russian Covid-19 vaccine is produced. All other information and design are the same except the manufacturer’s name.
* The English label is available only on the front and back of the carton of 5 ampoule pack for all the imported products so far. All other sides, including the primary label on the vaccine ampoule, is in Russian script.

]]>The Centre gave nod for the eventual resumption of metro services from September 7, and the return of up to 50 per cent of teaching and non-teaching staff to schools outside containment zones from September 21. In the fourth stage of the government’s phase-wise post-coronavirus lockdown reopening, states will no longer be permitted to impose lockdowns outside containment zones without the Centre’s permission.
Given that most states and union territories were not in favour of reopening schools and colleges, the MHA announced that they will remain closed till September 30. However, from September 21, a limited number of teaching and non-teaching staff may be called back to schools outside containment zones, and senior students of classes 9 to 12 will be permitted to visit their classrooms to clear their doubts.
