The third wave of coronaviruses around the world has once again disrupted normal life. In such a situation, the eyes of most countries are now dependent on the coronavirus vaccine. In this case, Russia’s Sputnik and American company Moderna and Pfizer’s vaccine is likely to come first. At the same time, the Corona vaccine of Oxford University and Astra Janeca are also likely to be launched after February.

Explain that while Sputnik is 92% effective, Moderna 94.5% and Pfizer-BioNotech vaccine are found to be 95% effective. Companies have also started disclosing their prices to the general public. While Adar Poonawalla, CEO of the Serum Institute, which is developing the vaccine at Oxford University, had said that the prices should be kept very economical, he had stated that the price of covisiled vaccine in India can be up to Rs 500-600 per dose.

Now Moderna CEO Stephan Bansal has told a German newspaper that his vaccine will be priced the same as the vaccine in the flu. Its single dose can be priced from $ 25 to $ 37 (ie 1800 to 2700 rupees). At the same time, because of Pfizer’s vaccine not receiving any funding, the price of one dose is likely to be above three thousand rupees.

Sputnik-V and NOVOVAX vaccine prices not yet decided: Significantly, Russia’s Sputnik-V vaccine prices are not yet fixed. Doctor Reddy’s Lab has to produce it in India. On the other hand, the price of American company Novovax’s Corona vaccine has not been revealed by the company yet, but Adar Poonawala’s Serum Institute will manufacture it and it is believed that its price will be kept very low.

Moderna and Pfizer’s vaccine is now awaiting emergency approval from the American Food and Drugs Administration (FDA). Pfizer has said to take off 2-4 crore doses by the end of this year. Next year, the two companies will produce 100–100 million vaccine doses.

Which vaccine is better for Pfizer or Modern India ?: According to experts, the Pfizer vaccine can last only five days in a normal freezer, whereas it will require minus 70 degrees temperature to store for a long time. On the other hand, the Moderna vaccine will not need to be kept in very cold temperatures. It is refrigerated for 30 days at a temperature of 2 to 8 ° C. This time is much longer than Bioentech and Pfizer’s vaccine. It can be safe for up to six months in -20 ° C (-4 Fahrenheit) temperatures and up to 24 hours in normal room temperature. That is, Moderna’s vaccine will not be affected due to the problem of cold storage in remote areas of India.
