On Thursday, NITI Aayog member VK Paul made a hopeful announcement amid a lack of vaccines in the country. Paul said that 216 crore doses of vaccine will be prepared from August to December this year. Paul said that any vaccine approved by the FDA or WHO would be allowed to come to India.
Import license will be given to them in one to two days. No import license is pending. Paul further explained that the Ministry of External Affairs is in touch with other vaccine makers in the world. We have already told Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson that if they want to send the vaccine from their home production, they would welcome it if they want to send it to India or produce it. For this, the central government is ready to provide every support.
Sputnik can come into the market from next week
NITI Aayog member Dr. VK Paul said that according to the data till 8 am on Thursday, 17.72 crore doses of the vaccine have been given so far. In the US, this number is around 26 crores. China is at number two. He said at the press conference of the Ministry of Health that Sputnik Corona Vaccine has arrived in India and I am happy to say that this vaccine will be available in the market from next week. There was less supply from Russia, it will increase by next week.
Bharat Biotech will also help other companies
Dr. Paul said that people say that help of other companies should also be taken in the manufacture of covaxin. I am happy to say that when we discussed this in this regard with Covaxin's manufacturer, Bharat Biotech, they gave their consent and welcomed the proposal. With the help of this vaccine, the coronavirus can be killed and it can be manufactured only in the BSL3 lab.
