No side-effects of Covid-19 vaccines: DCGI

Drug Controller General of India Dr. VG Somani after approving two Covid vaccines in a press conference said, "We'll never approve anything if there's slightest of safety concern. Vaccines are 110 % safe. Some side effects like mild fever, pain & allergy are common for every vaccine. It (that people may get impotent) is absolute rubbish".

DCGI approved Serum Institute of India's 'Covishield' vaccine and Bharat Biotech's 'Covaxin' for emergency use, paving way for its roll-out and administration to millions.
