Vaccine maker Bharat Biotech has not provided any data on the efficacy of the Covaxin jab against the Omicron variant of coronavirus in a study on its booster doses published on Saturday.

This is despite the fact that from Monday, a booster shot of Covaxin will be administered as a “precaution dose” to citizens over 60 years with co-morbidities who have received two doses of the vaccine earlier.
