A (long) thread on Bharat Biotech - ICMR's #Covaxin vaccine.

1. Type of vaccine: #Covaxin is a whole virion INACTIVATED vaccine.
In such vaccines, the whole #sarscov2 virus is inactivated to make it harmless and used to make the vaccine. Seed virus provided by NIV Pune.

1/n Image
2. How is it different from #Covishield? Covishield is a VIRAL VECTOR vaccine. Here, the spike protein of #sarscov2 is sequenced. A weakened virus that causes common cold in chimpanzees called Adenovirus is used as the vector to carry the spike protein in the vaccine.

2/n Image
3. Phase 1 trial: 375 persons in trial, done across 11 sites in 9 states.
Age profile: 18 to 55.
375 persons divided into 4 groups. 3 groups of 100 each received 3 different formulations of the vaccine and 1 control group of 75 received placebo.
Dosage: 2 doses, 14 days.

#sarscov2mutation What does it mean for us?
Mutation of viruses is part of it's evolutionary process. Once inside the host, viruses start replicating. Errors during this replication process results in changes to the genetic makeup of the virus - leading to mutations.

1/9
Depending on where in the genome the changes happen, mutation can impact the survivability of the virus. #SARSCoV2 is an RNA virus (like dengue) and is prone to more mutations than a DNA virus (eg. smallpox).
📣 As of Sept. abt. 12k mutations of #SARSCoV2 were documented.

2/9
What about the new strain reported in UK? Named "VUI-202012/01" (Variant Under Investigation in Dec 2020), it has a set of 23 mutations (out of close to 30k genetic letters). Most notable being the change in spike protein that is used by the virus to bind to our host cells.
