Recipients Will Not Be Given Options To Choose Vaccine

As India has approved both Covishield and Covaxin for emergency use, it is rolling out both the vaccines simultaneously. However, beneficiaries will not be given the freedom to choose which vaccine they want to opt for. 

Answering a question pertaining to people having the option to choose to receive the COVID-19 vaccine they wish to, Health Secretary Rajesh Bhushan highlighted that the choice of vaccines was not available to any residents in the countries that have rolled out COVID-19 vaccines.
