India will stick to its schedule of giving two doses of AstraZeneca’s vaccine, a senior government adviser said on Tuesday.

“India’s Covishield schedule is of two doses... there is no change and Covaxin is also for two doses,” government advisor V K Paul told reporters at a news conference.

Mixing of vaccines is not a protocol and research is currently being conducted on this, he added. (Reuters)

We have seen the ghastly pictures in our television screens of Indians dying outside the Capital’s hospitals gasping for oxygen and parks being converted into make shift crematoriums where bodies being burnt nonstop. No country on this planet is in a terrible position unable to protect its own people from Covid like India. As such no one outside India would be interested to hear the advice of the Indian government.

I don't know in which planet you are living. Even USA and Brazil were at similar stage earlier. Likewise India also will recover in no time. But worthless scumbags like you should get a life!

Mendis is saying the truth. We should not take any medical advice from India or Indian government. India has shown herself incapable of handling the corona crisis. We should listen to countries like China which have successfully tackled the corona virus problem.

Why don't you approach Bamgaladesh to get the vaccine. The country was established in 1971 and provided US$ 200 Million to protect our heritage.
