With preparations underway for a possible vaccine-rollout by January, the Indian drug regulator is looking at the UK, which may give its nod to the Oxford Covid-19 vaccine next week, before deciding on giving emergency use authorisation to the Serum Institute that is manufacturing the shots here.

Tamil film actor Rajinikanth's medical reports show there is nothing alarmingly wrong with him and his doctors will take a call on his discharge today afternoon.
