The Serum Institute of India said on Wednesday it would sell the AstraZeneca vaccine to the country’s state governments at Rs 400 ($5.30) per dose and to private hospitals at Rs 600 ($7.95).
“Furthermore, owing to the complexity, and urgency of the situation it is challenging to supply it independently to each corporate entity,” it said in a statement. “We would urge all corporate and private individuals to access the vaccines through the state facilitated machinery and private health systems.”
