India has supplied more Covid-19 vaccines globally than vaccinated its own people, the country has told the UN General Assembly.
India also cautioned that vaccine inequity will defeat the collective global resolve to contain the coronavirus as the disparity in the accessibility of vaccines will affect the poorest nations the most.
India’s deputy permanent representative to the UN Ambassador K Nagaraj Naidu told the General Assembly that India will not only be vaccinating 300 million of its own frontline workers over the next six months but in the process has also supplied vaccines to over 70 nations.
