17 per cent of Indians between ages 30 and 69 on blood thinners, cannot take Covaxin At least 17 per cent of Indians between the ages of 30 and 69 years cannot be administered Bharat Biotech’s Covaxin, as the inoculant is not meant for people who use blood thinners, according to a report in ThePrint. Some 17.4 per cent Indians are on aspirin, a commonly used blood thinner, according to the National Non-Communicable Disease Monitoring Survey 2017-18. Blood thinners are drugs that impede blood coagulation, both within blood vessels and in case of bleeding. Covaxin’s fact-sheet says that people who are on blood thinners or those who have bleeding disorders cannot take it. The fact-sheet for the Serum Institute of India s Covisheld asks potential recipients to inform their doctors in advance if they are on such medication, the report said.
