Any immunisation policy must be done in furtherance of a person’s fundamental right to health, the State tells SC
A single person deprived of vaccination will be to the collective detriment of a large section of the society. The Centre’s COVID-19 vaccination policy must be underpinned by the principle that “we are as strong as our weakest link.” Any immunisation policy must be done in furtherance of a person’s fundamental right to health, the Mamata Banerjee government told the Supreme Court on Friday. The State said the vaccine pricing policy is “ex-facie detrimental to the interest of the State governments and will result in an inequitable distribution of vaccines across the country.”More Related News
