City researchers part of global team to demystify Covid-19 virus origin | Hyderabad News

Hyderabad: While there is consensus that Covid-19 virus evolved from the coronavirus present in bats, it still remains a mystery how the new virus has taken pandemic proportions. A team of international researchers, including those from the Indian Institute of Chemical Technology (IICT) in Hyderabad and Kakatiya Medical College and MG Hospital in Warangal, have taken up research to demystify the proximal origin of the pandemic virus.
Researchers point out that the unique features of Covid-19 virus raise several questions about how it had evolved from the bats. They argue that Covid-19 is the seventh human coronavirus, but it is the first one that has caused the pandemic. While other human coronaviruses like severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) disappeared without a pandemic, Middle Eastern respiratory syndrome (MERS) is mostly endemic to the Arabian Peninsula, they said in their study published in the recent issue of Journal of Medical Virology.

Covaxin safe, may be superior to similar vaccines: Lancet | Hyderabad News

HYDERABAD: India’s first indigenous Covid-19 vaccine Covaxin, codenamed BBV152, is safe, immunogenic and has no serious adverse effects, medical journal Lancet has said while publishing the vaccine’s phase 2 trial results.
The journal also said the vaccine, which uses an ingredient called IMDG along with alum (Algel-an aluminium salt) to boost the immune response, could be superior to other inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccines that use only alum as adjuvant. “Overall, Algel-IMDG-adjuvanted BBV152 was safe, immunogenic, and able to induce Th1-based T-cell responses and therefore could be a potentially superior vaccine over the alum-adjuvanted inactivated Covid-19 vaccines,” Prof Jing-Xin Li and Prof Feng-Cai Zhu of Nanjing-based Jiangsu Provincial Centre for Disease Control and Prevention said in a comment in The Lancet Infectious Diseases.
