Much applause to India for this initiative and for not only having the right choice of vaccine but also for having the ability to manufacture their own supplies!

Surprising that India would make this political choice without the science to back it up.
And they are risking the lives of the health care workers rather than wait until the science on their home-made vaccine is in. Hope they don't do all their science that way.
They've had some issues recently. Read their patent health computers had a breech last year. https://cio.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/digital-security/microsoft-urges-action-on-health-care-cyber-attacks/79219527 https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/enterprise/news/lupin-reports-cybersecurity-breach-within-two-weeks-of-ransomware-hack-on-dr-reddys/articleshow/79061065.cms

America will sanction India for not buying expensive USA vaccines.

Bharat Biotech's Covaxin had been approved without phase 3 trails to put pressure on SII to reduce their price for Covishield.
Most of the doctors want Covishield since they trust the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine more than the homegrown one but for sure they will be labelled 'anti-nationals' by Modi's IT brigade.
