Covishield: Experts term Centre s 16 week gap decision arbitrary

The Narendra Modi government’s decision to set 16 weeks as the outer limit for the gap between the two doses of Covishield was “arbitrary” and “lacked scientific basis”, multiple medical experts have said. The Centre, which is insisting that the decision to increase the gap was based on scientific evidence, has not cited any study that specifically mentions 16 weeks. Instead, the government has been relying on studies that have researched the impact up to 12 weeks, not 16 weeks. Advertisement While the prevailing minimum gap 12 weeks is indeed based on scientific studies, it is the outer limit of 16 weeks that has landed the government on what appears to be thin ice. The government on Wednesday indicated that the 16-week limit is not cast in stone and did not rule out revisiting the decision.
