‘Expired vaccines to children?’ NDTV journalist’s fake news about Covaxin

NDTV is a notorious media organisation. It is known to have pro-Congress inclinations, but one would have thought that when it came to India and its health, the channel will not let its bias cloud its judgement. That, however, is precisely what seems to have happened. Recently, NDTV’s Vishnu Som took to Twitter to cast aspersions on the shelf life of Bharat Biotech’s Covaxin. One random parent took to Twitter to share what she said was an extension of the shelf life of Covaxin. She also insinuated that children in schools are being experimented upon by administering them with expired stocks of Covaxin doses.

Being the objective, fair and factual journalist that he is, Vishnu Som thought it is fit to react to the baseless allegations of a mother on Twitter. The Twitter user had said, “So my son went to get his first vaccine, the drive for kids begin today and realized that the vaccine had already expired in November. Then a letter was shown wherein it seems the shelf life has been extended!! How, why, on what basis? To clear stock you experiment on kids.”

Quoting this tweet, Vishnu Som said, “On what basis is this being done @mansukhmandviya? Can the formal notification clearing expired vaccine for use on children please be released?” However, Vishnu Som chose to ignore the fact that Covaxin’s shelf life was not given an extension after the Centre’s announcement to inoculate teenagers against Covid-19.

On what basis is this being done @mansukhmandviya ? Can the formal notification clearing expired vaccine for use on children please be released? https://t.co/PZTNJTvWuf

— Vishnu Som (@VishnuNDTV) January 3, 2022

In fact, Covaxin’s shelf life was extended in November 2021 itself. The Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO), India’s national regulatory body for drugs, granted Covaxin the approval of an extension of shelf life based on “additional data” accessed by it. In a statement issued by Bharat Biotech back then, it was said, “This approval is based on the availability of additional stability data, which was submitted to CDSCO. The shelf-life extension has been communicated to our stakeholders.”

NDTV was among those media outlets that reported this development. Vishnu Som would have known so, had he been a vivid NDTV website reader. But not everybody trusts NDTV for authentic news now, do they?

There was an article explaining this two months back Vishnu. But if you cannot rely on the alleged media outlet that carried it, I fully understand. https://t.co/QszZz42tZ8 pic.twitter.com/ycNAvbYvL3

The Modi government was quick to react to such baseless allegations as well. “There have been some media reports alleging that expired vaccines are being administered in India under its national COVID-19 vaccination programme. This is false and misleading and based on incomplete information,” the government said in a statement.

“The shelf life of vaccines is extended by the National Regulator based on comprehensive analysis and examination of stability study data furnished by the vaccine manufacturers,” it added.

Thus, NDTV has been exposed yet again. Will the alleged media organisation learn any lessons? The answer is– No.

    There is a lot of misconception about the expiry date on foods and drugs. The foods and the drugs expire long before their expiry dates if they are mishandled or stored at the wrong temperature. On the other hand, there is not a switch that gets turned off on the expiry dates. In most cases, there is always a substantial safety margin.

      This approval and decision on expiry date extension has been taken by The Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO), India’s national regulatory body for drugs and has been publicly notified two months ago in November 2021 but if any of these stupid NDTV journalist and Navanita Varadpande knows better than CDSCO, why not go to court and file a PIL? Now a days anything and everything is an issue if the matter don’t fit the agenda of particular media houses.
      As per your logic, any food, or medicines which is manufactured just few days back is deemed to be unfit if not handled and by that logic we can’t trust no food and no medicines at all as no optimum storage conditions are met in India, and we all should line up in front of the pharma company so that medicines can be directly given out of the production line.

    This here was written by an industrial engineer at Moderna:

    How the vaccine actually works from what we’ve uncovered:

    1. Make mRNA coding for S protein

    2. Make mRNA coding for mutant versions of CYP19A1 and CDKN1B in smaller amounts

    3. Make sure that while delivery system for (1) mostly ends up in liver, most of (2) ends up in the gonads

    4. Make sure form and quantity of additive upregulating LINE-1 reverse transcription activity makes it hard to detect among legit adjuvants

    5. Effects from (2) integrated by (4) are recessive; mildly oncogenic effects in vaccine recipients unlikely to be noticed for many years

    6. (5) recessive but since most of population vaccinated, in next generation female offspring have premature ovarian failure

    And it has been proven correct that the vaccine modifies DNA by this recent paper:
    Intracellular Reverse Transcription of Pfizer BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA Vaccine BNT162b2 In Vitro in Human Liver Cell Line

    (search the paper on duckduckgo)
