Prime Time With Ravish Kumar - May 14, 2021: In her 2021 budget speech, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced an increased monetary allocation for health and well-being and a couple of renewed schemes for swachh (clean) and swasth (healthy) India. In an attempt to strengthen India’s fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced Rs. 35,000 crore for the development and manufacturing of COVID-19 vaccines for 2021-22 and assured to provide more funds if needed. Facing criticism over a new vaccine policy that could have people paying far more for a Covid shot, the government put out a clarification. It said that vaccines procured by the central government would be provided free to states. However, the statement says nothing on the higher prices of vaccines sourced by states and private hospitals directly from the manufacturers. (Audio in Hindi)
