@HardeepSPuri 2/2 (Worse, if it turns out to be unsafe). But it is typical of a govt that prefers slogans over substance. Chest-thumping 'vaccine nationalism', combined with the PM's "atmanirbhar Bharat" campaign, has trumped common sense and a generation of established scientific protocols. — PolitiTweet.org

@HardeepSPuri 1/2 India actually has a good reputation in the vaccine world, both as a producer(60% of the world's vaccines) &as a consumer (the success of the polio&smallpox vaccination campaigns). This unseemly haste risks jeopardising both, especially if Covaxin turns out to be ineffective. — PolitiTweet.org

@Sanjay_Dixit . I'll use the vaccine once the Phase 3 clinical trials are concluded & it's proven to be safe & effective. Would YOU use it now, when it hasn't? — PolitiTweet.org

@TVMohandasPai The quoted tweet says very clearly "a triumph of collective modernity, NOT of communism", @TVMohandasPai! Indeed the difference @MrsGandhi points out between April & December is largely the result of the Communist Govt's complacency & hubris about its early performance. — PolitiTweet.org

This is all we are saying. Of course we will be proud if the vaccine turns out to work effectively. But offering it before Phase3 clinical trials have proven efficacy is a violation of every scientific protocol &unheard of in the world. Jingoism is no substitute for common sense. — PolitiTweet.org

I'm hugely impressed by the work of Indian-American film-maker @danishrenzu, whose previous film, "Half-Widow", set in Kashmir, was both compelling & moving. His new work, on Indian immigrants working illegally in the US, is coming to India soon. Watch for it! https://t.co/wt17r7axYq — PolitiTweet.org

@HardeepSPuri .

Shashi Tharoor @ShashiTharoor

@HardeepSPuri . First: I have never questioned the valour of our soldiers. Second: I would be happy and proud if more Indian vaccines are approved — but only after a full 3-phase trial confirms they are safe & effective. Short-circuiting the process is unprecedented, inadvisable &risks lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Shashi Tharoor @ShashiTharoor

The Covaxin has not yet had Phase 3 trials. Approval was premature and could be dangerous. @drharshvardhan should please clarify. Its use should be avoided till full trials are over. India can start with the AstraZeneca vaccine in the meantime. — PolitiTweet.org
