Smallpox eradication teaches that high-tech vaccinations only work when they are effectively combined with low-tech public health strategies.
One of India’s top vaccine experts discusses her concerns regarding the manner in which Covaxin and Covishield have been approved for restricted emergency use.
Appeal to the DCGI to reconsider the recommendations of the SEC in granting the REU approval to Covaxin.
The government did not give out relief packages in order to avoid stretching beyond its fiscal deficit limit, because it would have been frowned upon by global finance.

Janata Weekly is India’s oldest independent socialist weekly.
Ever since its founding in 1946, Janata has voiced its principled dissent against all conduct and practice that is detrimental to the cherished values of nationalism, democracy, secularism and socialism, while upholding the integrity and the ethical norms of healthy journalism. For more than seventy years now, week after week, it has continued to analyse the changes taking place in the country and the world from a socialist standpoint, and thus promote the spread of socialist ideology in the country.
