Centre should purchase vaccines from international market: Delhi Health Minister

The Delhi government has requested the Centre to purchase vaccines from the international market for the country rather than states doing themselves, Health Minister Satyendar Jain said on Thursday.

Jain said he raised certain issues during a video conference with Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan. “Centre should cap prices of vaccine,” Jain said at a press conference. “Companies should not be allowed to earn huge profits during such a crisis.” He added.
