Covaxin, a covid vaccine, has been approved by Britain. Those who have been vaccinated against Covaxin, locally developed in India, can enter the UK after November 22. They do not need quarantine. Alex Ellis, the British High Commissioner to India, said on Twitter that passengers taking covaxin do not need quarantine in the UK. The changes will take effect on November 22 at 4 p.m.
However, there will be a waiver on the Covid check before departure. There will also be a discount on the eighth-day test and quarantine. Earlier this month, Covaxin was approved by the World Health Organization. The World Health Organization (WHO) has stated that covaxin is 70 percent effective against the Delta variety. Switzerland had earlier approved Covaxin. In addition to Covaxin, the UK has also approved Chinese Sinovac and Sinopharm vaccines.
