covid-19 pandemic under control in India, indicated Dr Randeep Guleria, director All India Institute (AIIMS) on Thursday. He was speaking at 18th edition of the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit (HTLS) 2020.
The theme of this year’s HTLS, which will be held virtually, is ‘Defining a New Era’ as the world is dealing with the covid-19 pandemic.“I am sure all the health care workers and frontline workers would be vaccinated, but then we also need to look at the high-risk group," said Guleria.
The AIIMS chief also said that the percentage of population inoculated by 2021 will depend on the number of covid-19 vaccines getting regulatory approval early next year and the number of doses they will produce, India may have that million doses to give.
