COVAXIN-- India's first COVID-19vaccine

-
INTRODUCTION:
Bharat Biotech, a pioneering biotechnology company, located in Hyderabad, is known for its world-class R&D manufacturing capabilities. Their mission is to deliver affordable, safe and high quality vaccine and bio-therapeutics that help people to prevent from diseases.
COVAXIN, Bharat's indigenous COVID-19 vaccine by Bharat Biotech is developed by working together with the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR)-- National Institute of Virology (NIV). 

HOW IT'S MADE AND HOW IT WORKS:
The vaccine was developed by BBIL in collaboration with National Institute of Virology(NIV). NIV isolated a strain of the novel coronavirus from an asymptomatic (showing no symptoms) Covid-19 patient and send it to BBIL in the month of May.
Covaxin is an inactivated vaccine--vaccine that uses dead viruses.
Once the vaccine is injected into a human, it has no power to infect or multiply itself because it's a dead virus. It's function is to only introduce itself to the immune system so that an antibody is produced to fight with it. Thus, the immune system get trained to fight with the actual viruses when it really enters the human body.

APPROVAL:
COVAXIN underwent pre-clinical testing on animals such as pigs and mice to see if it's safe before the firm approach CDSCO for approval to move on to human trials.
The vaccine received DCGI approval for Phase 1&2 Human Clinical Trials and trials will be done accross Bharat from July 2020.

                   इंसानियत मैं डूबा सा रहता हूँ खयालो मे हरदम, क्यों तूने उसे छोड़ दिया, क्यों नहीं है तुझे इसका गम ऐ इंसानों,  तूने तो इसका मतलब ही बदल दिया, इंसान हो तुम इंसानियत को क्यों छोड़ दिया । नहीं होता कोई बड़ा न ही कोई छोटा इंसानियत से बड़ा धर्म नहीं होता ।                 -- Abhishek Sharma

                               A   TEENAGER             I tied my laces         But nowhere to go  My dreams have gone blank  No idea, what to do and what don't.        Lost in my imagination    With full of anxiety and strain        Bidding farewell to life        Unable to bear this pain.    Asking myself about my dream sketch        I am tired of feeling worthless     What left is just the broken dreams        Filled with emptiness..                                                -- SHEETAL   DHITAL

   A ccording to Bigbang theory, universe was created through an explosion i.e., Bigbang and it also says that it's continuously expanding. The two basic questions arises here: 1. Who made that explosion? 2. On what the universe is expanding into?     According to Darwin's theory, life(eg: Humans) were evolved from  small unicellular organisms because of Natural selection and many other factors. The basic questions here: 1. What does Darwin meant by Natural? Are there any explanation, What is nature? How it works? 2. How can a small unicellular microscopic organism can take a multicellular complex organisms like humans?  So there must be someone who created everything.                    Source:maxpixel.net HUMANS   ARE   DOGMATIC       B oth the atheists and theists are dogmatic to accept the truth. There's a big difference between their concept of human origin and universe formation.    For instance, assume that there is an old theist person who is
