MEXICO CITY (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 27th July, 2021) The Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency Anvisa canceled clinical trials of Indian vaccine Covaxin after the manufacturer informed it about the change of a local partner, none of the volunteers received it.
"The termination of the company's permit to present the vaccine in the country makes it impossible to comply with the rules governing the conduct of clinical trials of vaccines," according to a statement on the agency's website.
