96 nations accept India’s Covid vaccination certificates, says Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya

Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya (Mansukh Mandaviya) said that a total of 96 countries around the world have agreed to mutually recognize the COVID-19 vaccination certificate issued by India. The Minister of Health said on Tuesday that it is providing some relief to those travelling to and from these countries. Mansukh Mandaviya said: “Reflecting the world’s recognition of India’s vaccines and vaccination procedures, 96 countries have agreed to mutually accept their vaccination certificates.” He added, “A total of 96 countries have also agreed to recognize India’s fully vaccinated travelers Vaccination certificate.

With Covishield and other WHO-approved and nationally approved vaccines.” The Minister of Health also stated that the federal government will continue to maintain contact with the rest of the world in order to accept and recognize the benefits of the world’s largest Covid vaccination program In order to ease their travel for educational, business and tourism purposes.

The British government announced on Monday that, according to its new travel guide, from November 22, Bharat Biotech’s Covaxin will be added to its list of approved Covid vaccines for international travelers. “Starting at 4 a.m. on November 22, the British government will recognize vaccines on the World Health Organization’s emergency use list,” the British government’s new travel guide says.

This development occurred after the WHO approved Covaxin for emergency use last week. Mandaviya also stated that out of the eight vaccines against Covid-19 on the Emergency Use List (EUL) approved by the World Health Organization, two vaccines—Covaxin and Covishield—are from India. So far, the country’s cumulative vaccine doses have exceeded 1.0908 billion. India reached the milestone of 1 billion vaccination on October 21.

Covid infection linked to more type 1 diabetes in kids and teens: Study

Two studies that did not definitively resolve the question of whether the coronavirus can cause the chronic disease of diabetes found that Covid-19 in children and adolescents appeared to increase the chance of acquiring diabetes. Over two years after the pandemic’s commencement, researchers from the Norwegian Institute of Public Health looked at new type 1 diabetes diagnoses using national health registries. They discovered that type 1 diabetes was roughly 60% more likely to develop in children who had tested positive for the coronavirus.

The risk within 30 days of a Covid infection confirmed by a PCR test was examined by the researchers. Young adults were also included in a Scottish study that was presented at the European Link for the Study of Diabetes meeting. This study indicated an increased risk one month following the viral sickness, but the researchers said they discovered no association after that point.

The authors of both studies emphasised that their findings do not necessarily imply a causal link between diabetes and the coronavirus. Other potential causes were emphasised, such as delays in seeking medical attention during the epidemic, the introduction of other diseases, and alterations in way of life brought on by lockdowns.

Jamie Hartmann-Boyce, an associate professor at the Nuffield department of primary care health sciences at the University of Oxford, stated: “There are a lot of plausible reasons that Covid-19 might lead to development of type 1 diabetes, but this remains in no way proved.”
According to a paper earlier this week in the medical journal The Lancet, the number of people with type 1 diabetes, in which the pancreas fails to generate the hormone insulin, may increase from 8.4 million to 17.4 million by the year 2040.

The illness, which has no known treatment and is most frequently diagnosed in children, is thought to be caused by a combination of genetics and exposure to particular pathogens, including SARS-Cov-2 as well as a larger family of viruses known as enteroviruses. Type 2 diabetes, which is more prevalent, typically appears later in life as sedentary habits and weight increase mess with the body’s ability to manage sugar.
