Modi kicks off India's vaccination drive, says don't make mistake of ignoring second vaccine dose
January 16, 2021
Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched on Saturday one of the world's largest vaccination campaigns, as part of efforts by the populous nation to bring the COVID-19 pandemic under control starting with two locally manufactured shots.
Modi, who addressed healthcare workers through video conferencing, will not immediately take the vaccine himself as India is initially prioritizing nurses, doctors and others on the front line. "Don't make the mistake of ignoring the second vaccine dose," he urged people in the address while stressing on the need to wear masks and practice social distancing.
