- I-India igunyaza umuthi wokugoma omusha we-coronavirus.
- Kuvunyelwe ukuvunyelwa ukusetshenziswa kubantu abadala nasezinganeni ezineminyaka engu-12 nangaphezulu.
- I-India ihlose ukugoma bonke abantu abadala abafanelekile ngoDisemba, 2021.
I-DNA yokuqala emhlabeni edutshulwe yigciwane le-COVID-19 inikezwe imvume yokusebenzisa isimo esiphuthumayo yiCentral Drugs Standard Control Organisation kaHulumeni wase-India (CDSCO), njengoba izwe lisalwela ukubamba leli gciwane lisakazeka kwezinye izifundazwe.
The I-CDSCO imvume yanikezwa ukusetshenziswa okuphuthumayo kubantu abadala nezingane ezineminyaka eyi-12 nangaphezulu.
Ukuvunyelwa kuzohlinzeka ngokudubula kokuqala kwalabo abangaphansi kweminyaka eyi-18, futhi kunikeze umfutho IndiaUhlelo lokugoma, oluhlose ukugoma bonke abantu abadala abafanelekile baseNdiya ngoDisemba, 2021.
Umuthi wokugoma, i-ZyCoV-D, usebenzisa isigaba sezinto zofuzo ezisuka kuleligciwane esinikeza iziyalezo njenge-DNA noma i-RNA ukwenza iprotheni ethize amasosha omzimba ayibonayo futhi ayiphendule.
Ngokungafani nemigomo eminingi ye-coronavirus, edinga imithamo emibili noma ngisho nomthamo owodwa, i-ZyCoV-D ilawulwa ngemithamo emithathu.
Umenzi wezidakamizwa ojwayelekile, osohlwini lwe-Cadila Healthcare Ltd, uhlose ukwenza imithamo eyizigidi eziyikhulu kuya kweziyi-100 ye-ZyCoV-D minyaka yonke futhi useqalile ukugcina umuthi wokugoma.
Umuthi wokugoma kaZydus Cadila, owenziwe ngokubambisana noMnyango Wezobuchwepheshe, uyisibhamu sesibili esikhuliswa ekhaya ukuthola ukugunyazwa okuphuthumayo eNdiya ngemuva kweCovaxin kaBharat Biotech.
Umenzi wezidakamizwa uthe ngoJulayi umuthi wokugomela i-COVID-19 ubusebenza ngempumelelo ekulweni nezakhi zofuzo ezintsha ze-coronavirus, ikakhulukazi okwahlukahlukana kwe-Delta, nokuthi isibhamu senziwa kusetshenziswa umuthi ongenalinalokuphikisana nemijovo yendabuko.
Ifemu ibifake isicelo sokugunyazwa kweZyCoV-D ngoJulayi 1, ngokuya ngesilinganiso sokusebenza kwamaphesenti angama-66.6 esivivinyweni esiseduze kakhulu samavolontiya angaphezu kwama-28,000 ezweni lonke.
LOKHO ONGAKUTHATHE KULESI SIHLOKO:
- World's first DNA shot against the COVID-19 virus has been granted emergency use approval by the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization of the Government of India (CDSCO), as the country still struggles to contain the virus spread in some states.
- Umuthi wokugoma, i-ZyCoV-D, usebenzisa isigaba sezinto zofuzo ezisuka kuleligciwane esinikeza iziyalezo njenge-DNA noma i-RNA ukwenza iprotheni ethize amasosha omzimba ayibonayo futhi ayiphendule.
- Umenzi wezidakamizwa uthe ngoJulayi umuthi wokugomela i-COVID-19 ubusebenza ngempumelelo ekulweni nezakhi zofuzo ezintsha ze-coronavirus, ikakhulukazi okwahlukahlukana kwe-Delta, nokuthi isibhamu senziwa kusetshenziswa umuthi ongenalinalokuphikisana nemijovo yendabuko.
