For many governments around the world, including America, the COVID-19 drug created by Moderna and Pfizer is said to be the best option at fighting the coronavirus. In America, the Biden administration was so adamant about the COVID-19 drug that Joe Biden tried to force it on America’s workforce. That plan, like several others, backfired and led to a mountain of criticism and lawsuits. But among all the incentives, public relations, and marketing videos, one country continuously refuses to accept the drug by Pfizer or Moderna and up till now, the reason was completely unknown.
Although the COVID-19 drug is pushed and promoted in America, in India, the drug companies were turned away by the government due to their outlandish demands. In the video, which is featured below, Indian Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya was promoting the book launch of “A Nation to Protect” when he revealed the lack of accountability as the reason Pfizer and Moderna were denied.
The government also supported single-dose shots like Russia’s Sputnik and the one made by Johnson & Johnson.
Having revealed the reason behind the decision, Dr. Suneel Dehand discussed the news revealed by the Health Minister and the effects it had on India.
