Al Jazeera
This marks a significant jump from the 79 million doses available in May as government tries to plug the jab shortage.
India will have nearly 120 million doses of coronavirus vaccines available for domestic use in the month of June, the government said on Sunday, in a boost to its immunisation campaign that has been marred by shortages of jabs. This marks a significant jump from the 79.4 million doses that were available in May amid the devastating second wave that has killed more than 150,000 people in the past eight weeks. India has administered about 212 million doses, the most after China and the United States, but has given the necessary two doses to only about three percent of its 1.35 billion people.
