The Indian government has argued before the Supreme Court of India that it is not liable for any injuries that may occur as a result of the Covid vaccine, according to its affidavit dated November 23.
This affidavit was submitted in response to a petition filed by the parents of two young women in India who tragically lost their lives after receiving the experimental Covid vaccine last year, according to Hindustan Times.
“The petition demanded an independent investigation into the deaths and an expert medical board to prepare a protocol for early detection and timely treatment of adverse effects following immunization (AEFI),” the outlet reported.
The petitioners were Rachana Gangu, mother of Rithaika Omtri, 18, and Venugopalan Govindan, father of Karunya Venugopalan, 20, who both died within 3 weeks of receiving the Covid vaccine.
