|

Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced on Monday that the government of India will provide free vaccinations to states for everyone above the age of 18, as part of his government's immunisation policy.

 

PM Modi said that starting on June 21, all people above the age of 18 will be able to get Covid-19 vaccinations for free at government immunisation centres.

Furthermore, the prime minister stated that people who choose to pay for vaccinations might do so in private facilities. However, he emphasised that private institutions can charge a maximum of Rs 150 per dosage as a service charge in addition to the vaccine's fixed price.

Modi also stated that private hospitals can continue to obtain 25% of vaccines.

hat the Centre has chosen to acquire 75% of vaccines from manufacturers, including 25% of the state quota, and provide them to state governments for free.

According to Modi, seven companies in the country are developing coronavirus vaccines, and three more vaccines are now being tested.

State governments would likely pay Rs 300 for each dosage for SII's Covid-19 vaccination, while private institutions will pay Rs 600 per dosage. Covaxin from Bharat Biotech costs between Rs 400 and Rs 1,200. Sputnik V, a Russian vaccination, costs Rs 995 per dosage.
