Govt never spoke about vaccinating entire country, says Health Secretary

Dec. 1: Health Secretary Rajesh Bhushan on Tuesday while speaking at a press conference in Delhi said that the Government has never spoken about vaccinating everyone, against COVID-19. “I just want to make this clear that the government has never spoken about vaccinating the entire country. It’s important that we discuss such scientific issues, based on factual information only,” Health Secretary Rajesh Bhushan said while responding to a question on when a vaccine can be provided to everyone in the country.

“Vaccination would depend on the efficacy of the vaccine and our purpose is to break the chain of Covid-19 transmission. If we’re able to vaccinate critical mass of people and break virus transmission, then we may not have to vaccinate the entire population,” ICMR DG, Balram Bhargava further added.
