If I have an option of choosing between covaxin and covishield. Which should I go for? I am confused as covaxin has not been approved by who whereas covishield has side effects and even news regarding blood clots after covishield? Is covishield effective against new delta variant?

In indian population, both covaxin and covishield has been scientifically documented to be effective. Approval by who is a matter of red tape and paperwork and shouldn't influence your choice of vaccine - you can safely take anyone of them. Blood clotting is a very rare episode and if detected it can be easily treated. In indian population, there has barely been any such reported incidents. Both the vaccines have proven to provide significant degree of protection against new variants as well, but no covid vaccine in the world has been able to provide 100% immunity, so even after vaccination you need to keep your guard up. In case you have further concerns which you wish to discuss in detail, you can have an online appointment with me regarding the same.
