India Inc bats for easier processes to speed up vaccine delivery Premium (AP) Share Via Read Full Story New Delhi: Private sector can scale up India’s covid-19 vaccination drive five times in the next 45 days, but needs processes that are less cumbersome than currently followed, industry leaders Mint spoke to said. India, in 40 days, has vaccinated 1.23 crore healthcare and frontline workers. A speedier vaccination drive has become an imperative given that many Indian states are now witnessing a second wave. “When the private sector gets extensively involved, we can ramp up the vaccination effort five to 10 times," Shobana Kamineni, vice chairperson of Apollo Hospitals Enterprise Limited, said. “We can do 50 million vaccinations in the next 45 days if the sites are ramped up and more people are encouraged to get vaccinated," she added.
