India, home to the ’world’s largest vaccine maker’ begun the largest COVID-19 vaccination drive on Saturday. Authorities claimed that the country aims to immunize 30M people in the first round which is almost equivalent of the entire US population. Doctors, nurses and other front-line workers who constitute to about 30M will be given preference followed by the remaining 270M elderly individuals.
Immunization of 30M people in India is not even close to the US population. It’s closer to 10%. We have over 300M people in the United States.
We got rid of smallpox, we can get rid of this.
Are they gonna do it by race and gender?
The US has already begun COVID the first round of mass vaccines already. The 'other half' has already been delegated and must be held for a second dose in order to be effective. One should not simply treat a vaccine like our social security.
