What is the extent of Covid-19 vaccine shortage? April 15, 2021 At current capacities, the demand-supply gap is around 5 crore doses a month The vaccination drive against coronavirus is in full swing in India for adults aged 45 and above, healthcare workers and frontline workers. But India lags other countries with large Covid-19 case-loads in vaccination coverage and there is a need to accelerate the pace of vaccination substantially. There are also reports of shortage of vaccine availability in many centres. We decided to do the math for the demand and supply of Covid-19 vaccines in India. Our finding is that if we want to vaccinate all the population above 45 years by end of July, we will have to administer 13.18 crore doses every month up to July end. But given the current capacities, there is likely to be a shortfall of around 5 crore doses by June, unless capacities are expanded and new vaccines made available.
