Modi Announced Good News to the World : Mass Production of Local Vaccines to Ensure Universal Vaccination

'India is not slower than any country', Modi suddenly announced to the world: we also have a vaccine.

As of August 16, the cumulative number of confirmed new coronavirus cases worldwide has exceeded 21.5 million. In recent days, there has been a serious rebound in the epidemic in many overseas regions. However, at a critical moment, Russia was the first to announce that it had registered the world's first new coronavirus vaccine. This vaccine has also been approved by the Russian Ministry of Health and will be officially circulated in the private market on January 1 next year.

Just as many countries around the world began to apply to Russia to order the new coronavirus vaccine, India suddenly announced a good news to the world. On August 16th, according to the Hindustan Times, on the 15th local time, Modi stated during his Independence Day speech event : We will usher in the local new coronavirus vaccine.

He told the Indian people that he has brought a major good news to the people across the country. New Delhi has already had three new coronavirus vaccines in the testing phase, which means that there will be vaccines in India soon. In addition, the Indian government has invested funds to establish an infrastructure base for vaccine production. Once these vaccines have effectively passed the testing phase, India will be able to mass-produce indigenous new coronavirus vaccines to ensure that all people are vaccinated. The World Health Organization believes that the good news announced by every country in the development of the new coronavirus vaccine is the hope of all mankind.



However, the WHO calls on the vaccines developed by each country to be fair, transparent, and safe, and they should not rush to achieve results, otherwise they will suffer backlash. It is understood that in the recent period, the epidemic situation in India has been continuously high, for more than half a month, the cumulative number of new cases in India has exceeded 50,000 daily. Now, the total cumulative number of confirmed diagnoses in India has exceeded 2.5 million, and hospitals across India are facing over-load operation, and even collapse at any time. Therefore, experts believe that Modi is currently announcing that it will develop a new crown vaccine to vaccinate all Indians. This is a kind of 'temporary strategy' in order to make the Indians feel at ease.


It is reported that Covaxin, the Indian company that develops vaccines, announced the clinical trial on the 15th July. That is to say, after only 30 days, India said that it will produce large-scale vaccines locally. This move also allows both overseas and domestic Indian people expressed concern. As we all know, the development of vaccines requires a lot of money, time, and multi-level clinical trials. To develop a vaccine, it must pass three phases of clinical trial testing. But India seems to be a little hasty in developing vaccines. Therefore, some scholars have warned India not to experiment with the health of all Indians, otherwise it will only make an international joke and make itself unable to look up.
