Veteran virologist Shahid Jameel, chair of the scientific advisory group of the forum INSACOG, has quit the forum but declined to give a reason. “I am not obliged to give a reason,” he said, adding that he quit on Friday. Asked why the Centre did not respond forcefully to their findings on new variants, Jameel had told Reuters that he was concerned that authorities were not paying enough attention to the evidence as they set policy.
