The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) reviewed a study on the long-term safety of Covaxin in adults and adolescents, conducted by Banaras Hindu University, and found significant methodological flaws. Minister of State for Health Prataprao Jadhav informed the Rajya Sabha that the study lacked a control group of unvaccinated individuals, making it impossible to link reported events to the vaccine. The study, published in May, also lacked background rates and baseline participant information. ICMR has requested the removal of its acknowledgment from the study and asked the journal to retract the paper due to unsupported conclusions.
