A World Health Organization technical advisory group was reviewing data on India’s Covaxin shot against Covid-19 on Tuesday with a decision on its emergency use listing likely expected soon.

WHO spokesperson Margaret Harris told journalists at a U.N. press briefing that if all is in place and all goes well and if the committee is satisfied, WHO would expect a recommendation within the next 24 hours or so.

Millions of Indians have taken the shot produced by Bharat Biotech but many have been unable to travel pending the WHO approval.
