The United Kingdom has finally recognised Covishield, the Covid-19 vaccine manufactured by Serum Institute of India. However, the travails of Indians travelling to the UK aren’t over. The country, which appears to have doubts over vaccine certification in India, has not removed the home isolation requirement for vaccinated Indians and has sought details regarding the working of the CoWin app.
The recognition to Covishield, meanwhile, came a day after an angry response from India's external affairs ministry, which dubbed the British policy as discriminatory. India also warned of “reciprocal measures” if the UK did not make policy corrections.
