NEW DELHI: A recent report claimed that the Drugs Controller General of India (DCGI) has permitted a study on 'vaccine mixing', which is expected to be crucial in the fight against Covid. The study will be conducted by mixing one dose of Covishield with one dose of Covaxin. As per the report, the DGCI has granted permission to conduct clinical trials on 300 volunteers. The study will be conducted by the Christain Medical College in Vellore.

According to the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), a study conducted on 18 people in Uttar Pradesh had shown that this method was safe and enhanced immunity against Covid.
