Sharjah24 – Reuters: India expects to get about 266 million COVID-19 vaccine doses in August as a simpler licensing process has helped the government secure far more than earlier expected, the president of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's party said on Friday.
Late last month, a senior government official told reporters that the government could only count on getting about 150 million doses in August.
Since then, India's drug regulator has approved the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, though the company has not yet committed to a delivery schedule, and commercial production of Russia's Sputnik V in India could start too.
