Research by professors of Banaras Hindu University in Uttar Pradesh has found that only one dose of vaccine is sufficient for people recovering from corona infection.
The BHU professors have also written a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi about the results of their research. Based on the results of his research, he suggested that those who have recovered from corona infection should be given the same dose of vaccine.
He argues that by doing this the doses of 2 crore vaccines can be saved. It is important to note that the number of people recovering from corona infection in India is more than 20 million. Amidst the news of vaccine in India, this news has attracted the attention of a lot of people.
Research and results in BHU
Vijay Nath Mishra, a professor in the department of neurology at BHU and Professor Abhishek Pathak and a professor in the Department of Molecular Anthropology, Dhaneshwar Chaube, have done the research on 20 people who were cured of corona.
They found that the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine produces sufficient antibodies in the first 10 days in people who have recovered from corona infection. The first dose of the vaccine does not produce that much antibody in people not infected with the corona.
But based on a study done on 20 people, how correct is it to send such suggestions to the Prime Minister?
In response to this question, Professor Choubey told the BBC, “There has been such a study in other countries of the world. Similar research has been done on mRNA vaccine in the US and the results are similar to the results of our research. It would have been clear. Is that our research also has merit. We have only suggested. Government of India is not short of resources. Based on the results of our research and the results of research done abroad, the Central Government is also collecting data in this direction, Can work. Hardly it will take a month’s time. “
Professor Chaubey says that this study was done in the month of February on the people of North India, who were infected in the first wave of Corona and were given the coviciled vaccine. They are now doing a similar study on covaxine.
