Our country has for this pandemic at many levels,” new health infrastructure has been developed in the the 1.5 years with covid hospitals, ventilators beds, to preparing a network of testing labs.

The demand for vaccines globally is much more than the manufacturers of the vaccines across the world, “.
On Vaccine our PM Modi had said, There is very less number of vaccine manufacturers in the world compared to its demand. Imagine what would have happened in India if we did not have Vaccines.

25% Quota to States
This year, much of the vaccination programme happened under the Centres watch. Vaccination program was on smoothly. Then state said let the vaccination programme be decentralized. ”
