Amid the rising coronavirus case count, India has decided to allow vaccination to all citizens above the age of 18, from May 1. The decision was announced on Monday evening after India recorded 2.7 lakh cases of coronavirus, the highest single-day tally. Along with this, vaccine manufacturers have been empowered to release up to 50% of supplies directly to state governments and in the open market at pre-declared prices, a move that would boost the availability of the vaccine to the people.
