New Delhi: On the one hand, there is good news and on the other hand, there is news of concern. Along with this good news in the war against Corona, there is also a concern about keeping it in India. Randeep Guleria, director, AIIMS Delhi, said the Pfizer vaccine would need to be kept at a temperature of minus 70 degrees Celsius and would not be easy to do in India. However, the steady decline in the number of active cases of corona in India is also good news. 47,905 new patients have been registered in the last 24 hours. This brings the total number of cases to 86,83,917. Out of which the number of active cases is 4,89,294. Which is constantly declining.

Cold chain big trouble
The Pfizer company has announced a 90 percent success in its corona vaccine trial. But there is a big problem in its storage. Randeep Guleria, director, Delhi AIIMS, says the Pfizer vaccine has to be kept at a temperature of -70 degrees Celsius and it will be a big challenge for countries like India to create and maintain such low temperature cold chains.
Pfizer's good performance
US company Pfizer has performed better than expected during its Corona vaccine trials. Seeing that, it seems that a good corona vaccine is coming to the world soon. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has demanded from the government that the necessary logistical facilities should be developed for the corona vaccine to reach every Indian.
Research has revealed that this vaccine has proved to be very effective against corona, saving the lives of many people!
Trouble will occur in rural areas
The AIIMS director's remarks have raised concerns in the country. Randeep Guleria said that this corona vaccine is very useful but storing it is a difficult task. Keeping the vaccine at a very low temperature will be a major challenge for India and all other countries like it, especially in rural areas.
Also waiting for another corona vaccine
Randeep Gularia said that maintaining the cold chain of Pfizer vaccine in India, especially in rural areas, would be a challenging task. It would be good if we could wait for another corona vaccine. Phase 3 trials have seen encouraging results from all possible vaccines.
