“Without it, we will not be able to administer vaccine to our senior citizens,” says Gyawali
Nepal has run out of the India-made vaccine in the middle of its national campaign for vaccination against the COVID-19 pandemic. Speaking to The Hindu from Kathmandu, Foreign Minister Pradeep Gyawali said it would not be possible for the country to vaccinate the elderly population if India failed to rush the pre-ordered consignment of the Covishield vaccine from the Serum Institute of India (SII) in Pune. “We are eagerly waiting for the second round of doses of the Covishield vaccine... We received one million doses in the first grant from the Government of India, and are now waiting for another million for which we have already paid,” Mr. Gyawali said over telephone.
