As the debate over the quality of anti-rabies vaccine currently used in the State heats up, Health Minister Veena George has written to the Centre that the vaccine be subjected to quality tests once again.
The vaccines are subjected to tests and given quality certification by the Central Drugs Laboratory at Kasauli. It was the vaccine and immunoglobulin serum which was tested and certified by CDL, that had been administered to all animal bite cases, including the five people who died of rabies in the State.
Ms. George, in her letter, has quoted the batch number and the CDL certification of the vaccine and serum used in the State.
