India’s coronavirus infections rose by another 62,212 cases over the previous day and a local media report said on Saturday that the government had begun identifying about 300 million people who would be given the vaccine first when it is ready.
The Times of India said that frontline health and sanitation workers, police officials and elderly people with co-morbidities will get the vaccine on priority. The plan, which is still in the draft stage, aims to cover 23% of the population in the first phase. The final plan is likely to be ready by end October-November, the report said. The selected individuals will be given an estimated 600 million doses. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-india-cases/india-begins-selecting-people-for-priority-coronavirus-vaccines-idUSKBN272084 HELP US SPREAD GOOD NEWS!
