Covaxin

Covaxin is a COVID-19 vaccine developed in India to help protect against the coronavirus. It is an inactivated vaccine, meaning it contains a dead version of the virus that cannot cause illness but prompts the immune system to recognize and fight the actual virus if encountered later. This stimulates the body to produce protective antibodies and memory cells, reducing the risk of severe COVID-19. Covaxin has been tested for safety and effectiveness and is used globally as part of vaccination efforts to control the pandemic.
