WITH the Covid-19 situation in India improving rapidly, there is wide expectation that it would soon resume export of vaccines.

“I would not be surprised if we hear something positive very soon,” said Pratyaya Amrit, the Additional Chief Secretary at the Health Department of India’s Bihar state, on the possible lifting of the ban on export of vaccines to Covax countries.
