serum vaccine: No vaccine supply to states till May 25? The Center replied

New Delhi: The coronavirus vaccination update is a big decision in the fight against coronavirus. The central government will vaccinate citizens above 18 years of age from May 1. In addition, 50 per cent supply will be provided to the central government by vaccine manufacturers. The central government allowed the supply of the remaining 50 per cent of the vaccine to the states and the open market. But now the serum institute, which produces the covishield vaccine, will not be able to supply covishield vaccine to the states till May 25, the report said. The central government (union health ministry) has now clarified the role and rejected the report, ANI has reported.

What did the Union Ministry of Health say?

Due to the agreement with the Central Government, the Serum Institute will have to supply all the vaccines to the Center by May 25. As a result, states will not be able to purchase the vaccine from the Serum Institute until then, according to some media reports. The Union Ministry of Health has clarified that the report is completely false and baseless.

The country’s coronary vaccination campaign is being stepped up. For this, a liberal policy has been adopted regarding the price of vaccines. Under the policy, states are free to purchase vaccine doses from vaccine manufacturers, the Union Ministry of Health said.
