CM Jagan spoke about the expected timeline at a review meeting on COVID-19 vaccination held on April 29, Thursday. At the meeting, Jagan said it's uncertain when the problem of COVID-19
will be resolved, while noting that vaccination is the only solution. Providing a detailed estimation of the requirement and supply of COVID-19 vaccines in India, Jagan said that India
currently has the capacity to manufacture seven crore vaccines per month (one crore doses of Covaxin and six crore doses of Covishield). Considering the number of vaccine doses already
administered to those above 45 years of age across India, he said another 39 crore vaccine doses are required to vaccinate beneficiaries above 45 years. With other vaccine manufacturers
expected to begin the production soon, this demand is likely to be met only by August or September, he said, adding that vaccination for people between 18 and 45 years will begin after that.
