The announcement came in the backdrop of a second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic hitting several parts of the country.A day later, highly-placed sources said on Wednesday that the Indian government has also decided that it will not be “expanding” the export of vaccines over the next couple of months.All the pending orders will get delivered, but new inquiries will not be accepted for several months. It is being done to allow India to have adequate supplies to cope with the expansion in the domestic vaccination programme, amid the surge in cases.Sources added that an assessment of the export policy would be done after two to three months about whether to restart taking new orders.There had been earlier reports that Serum Institute of India (SII), the world’s largest vaccine manufacturer by volume, has informed Brazil, Saudi Arabia and Morocco that further supplies of the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine will be delayed due to surging demand at home and as it works through a capacity expansion.Meanwhile, SII has sought permission from the Centre to supply 50 lakh doses of the Oxford COVID-19 vaccine candidate Covishield to the UK, citing an agreement with AstraZeneca in this regard.PS: You may have noticed that the new infection count reached 59,000 in India yesterday....------ Post added on [DATETIME="UT"]1616747974[/DATETIME]</blockquote>
