Prime Time with Ravish Kumar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itBdF8QML6k Reacting to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's announcement that the centre will provide anti-Covid vaccines for free to all the eligible age groups, the Congress alleged the delay in accepting the opposition's demand "inflicted a huge cost on the people of India". "The Prime Minister inflicted a huge cost on the people of India before accepting the Opposition's demand for centralised procurement and free vaccination for 18-44 year olds. Humility and reaching out will not hurt him," senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh tweeted.

Why there is no reason to believe that a ‘child wave’ is coming. June 5, 2021,Chandrakant Lahiriya https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/blogs/voices/why-there-is-no-reason-to-believe-that-a-child-wave-is-coming/ contrary to all the evidence, both social and mainstream media are abuzz about how children are either already getting severely affected or likely to get severe disease in the third wave. Any mention of children and Covid-19 together is taken as confirmation of this conjecture. ,,
even an early career epidemiologist would tell you that to draw the correct inference, one needs to know both numerator and denominator. In April-May 2021, Maharashtra reported nearly 29 lakh new Covid cases. Therefore, 99,000 new cases in the 0-10 age group is 3.5% of total cases, while this age group makes up nearly 24% of total population.
A CSE report has shown that the 2nd wave of the covid pandemic has hit rural India hard, devastating it. The majority of covid cases and 52% of the deaths were reported from rural India in the 2nd wave. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAvqJuBkCjw . 56% of cases reported from rural india. Migration and Internal displacement important factor. Commynity Health Centres need 76% more doctors, 56 more radiographers, 35% more lab technicians, 38% more CHCs (rajit Sengupta
SBU Ecowrap Report: 1st June 2021 https://youtu.be/UUvvrKNs4FA The study showed that tier-3 and tier-4 witnessed a bigger increase in deaths during the second wave of COVID-19 compared to the first wave.
A Million Indians Will Likely Have Died By the End of Second Covid Wave, Says Pandemic Researcher https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tt8eItweEkc Prof Chinmay Tumbe points out this figure is based on “the most conservative extrapolations”. He adds the second wave is far from over and both in terms of cases and deaths it’s still way ahead of the first wave. Prof Tumbe also says the total death toll in both waves is likely to be in a range between 1.3 and 1.45 million. This means as Prof Tumbe points out, his estimate closely approximates the third of The New York Times projections published last week, where the paper forecast 1.6 million estimated deaths and which the paper called “a more likely scenario”.

| Vinod Paul | R Ramakumar |
| Myth 1: Centre is not doing enough to buy vaccines from abroad Fact: The Central Government has remained engaged continuously with all the major international vaccine manufacturers right from mid-2020. As soon as Pfizer indicated vaccine availability, Central Government and the company are working together for the earliest possible import of the vaccine. As a result of GoI’s efforts, Sputnik vaccine trials got accelerated and with timely approval, Russia has already sent two tranches of vaccines & accomplishedtech-transfer to our companies that would start manufacturing very soon | 2/ Myth 1: The criticism against GoI is that it delayed placing advance purchase orders for vaccines till January 2021. Other nations had placed orders by June 2020 itself. Bangladesh placed its first order with SII in November 2020. Why couldn't the GoI place orders earlier? 3/ Orders were not placed with foreign or domestic producers till 2021. On the foreign front, none of the discussions from "mid-2020" resulted in any order placed till April 2021. Further, no foreign vaccine had emergency use approval in India to facilitate placement of orders. 4/ On the domestic front, the assumptions were: (a) India's production capacity is sufficient to meet India's demand; (b) "Made in India" vaccines would be sufficient for India; and (c) all of production within India is for India's use. All the three assumptions were misplaced. 5/ On (a) and (b), even the most liberal projections never placed India's production capacity above 28 lakh doses/day, when it needed 54 lakh doses/day to vaccinate 100% of its 18+ population in 12 months. It was clear to all that we needed foreign vaccines. Except the GoI! 6/ On (c), on what basis did the GoI assume that all of India's domestic production capacity can be for India's use? GoI knew that firms like SII had export commitments? Adar Poonawalla had publicly stated in October 2020 that half his production was earmarked for other countries |
| Myth 2: Centre has not approved vaccines available globally Fact: The Central Government has proactively eased entry of vaccines approved by US FDA, EMA, UK's MHRA and Japan's PMDA, and WHO's Emergency Use Listing into India in April. These vaccines will not need to undergo prior bridging trials. The provision has now been further amended to waive off the trial requirement altogether for the well-established vaccines manufactured in other countries. No application of any foreign manufacturer for approval is pending with the drugs controller. |
7/ Myth 2: All this was after 13 April 2021. In February 2021, GoI denied EUA for Sputnik V citing absence of immunogenecity data. But it gave EUA for Covishield in Janaury 2021 without immunogenecity data. Why were different criteria applied to Covishield and Sputnik V? 8/ GoI also returned Pfizer's application for EUA citing absence of local bridging trials. But it gave Covaxin EUA in January 2021 without any Phase 3 data. In May 2021, we still do not have Phase 3 results of Covaxin! Why were different criteria applied to Covaxin and Pfizer? 9/ The reality: the 13 April decision to give EUA for more foreign vaccines was after the GoI realised (a) that its projections were all wrong; (b) its folly of betting on politics (a la atmanirbhar policy) rather than reason; (c) vaccine shortage grew dangerously after 7 April. 10/ This course correction of 13 April is now being publicised as a proactive policy initiative! The reality is that it was public pressure and ridicule that forced GoI to change track. |
| Myth 3: Centre is not doing enough to ramp up domestic production of vaccines Fact: The Central Government is playing the role of an effective facilitator to enable more companies to produce vaccines from the early 2020. There is only 1 Indian company (Bharat Biotech) which has the IP. GoI has ensured that 3 other companies/plants will start production of Covaxin apart from enhancing Bharat Biotech’s own plants, which have increased from 1 to 4. Covaxin production by Bharat Biotech is being increased from under 1 Cr per month to 10 Cr month by October. Additionally, the three PSUs will together aim to produce upto 4.0 Cr doses by December. With constant encouragement of the Government, Serum Institute is ramping up Covishield production of 6.5 crore doses per month to 11.0 crore doses per month. GoI is also ensuring in partnership with Russia that Sputnik will be manufactured by 6 companies coordinated by Dr Reddy’s. The Union Government is supporting efforts of Zydus Cadila, BioE as well Gennova for their respective indigenous vaccines through liberal funding under Covid Suraksha scheme as also the technical support at national laboratories. Development of Bharat Biotech’s single dose intranasal vaccine is proceeding well with GoI funding, and it could be a game-changer for the world. The estimate of production of over 200 crore doses by our vaccine industry by the end of 2021 is the result of such efforts and unstinted support and partnership. How many countries can even dream of such an enormous capacity, and that too across conventional as well as cutting-edge DNA and mRNA platforms? GoI and vaccine manufacturers have worked as one Team India in this mission with seamless engagement on daily basis. |
11/ Myth 3: The simple question is this: how much did the GoI "invest" in expanding the production capacity of vaccine companies in India in 2020 or 2021? The answer is zero. 12/ World over, governments invested in private companies to share risks with them, and later bought back vaccines from them at cheap prices. Examples are USA with Moderna; Germany with BioNTech; and UK with Oxford-AstraZeneca. Not in India, though. 13/ In India, the GoI provided money to SII and BB only after January 2021, that too in the form of advance payments on vaccine purchases. There was no support or investment. The only at-risk investment in SII of $150 million was from GAVI and Gates Foundation, not GoI. 14/ Contrary to what the release says, IPR of Covaxin is shared by GoI and BB. This is where the question arises: what did the GoI do with this IPR given that it had moved the WTO to globally waive vaccine IPRs? Why was one company given exclusive license till April 2021? 15/ Is it not true that the decision to give Covaxin licenses to three PSUs was arrived at only when the Supreme Court of India threatened to intervene? Having been forced by the court to decide so, the GoI is now showcasing it as another proactive policy initiative! 16/ On the other claims. By when will SII's capacity rise to 11 crore doses/month? On what basis is GoI saying that BB's capacity would rise 10-fold to 10 crore doses/month by October? And why is the GoI claiming higher supply of those vaccines in very early stages of testing? |
|
Myth 4: Centre should invoke compulsory licensing Fact: Compulsory Licensing is not a very attractive option since it is not a ‘formula’ that matters, but active partnership, training of human resources, sourcing of raw materials and highest levels of bio-safety labs which is required. Tech transfer is the key and that remains in the hands of the company that has carried out R&D. Infact, we have gone one step ahead of Compulsory Licensing and are ensuring active partnership between Bharat Biotech & 3 other entities to enhance production of Covaxin. Similar mechanism is being followed for Sputnik. Think about this: Moderna had said in October 2020 that it will not sue any company which makes its vaccines, but still not one company has done it, which shows licensing is the least of the issues. If vaccine-making was so easy, why would even the developed world be so short of vaccine doses?
|
17/ Myth 4: if compulsory licensing was not attractive, why is the GoI in the WTO asking for IPR waivers? The question of CL was raised in India with regard to Covaxin on which the GoI had a shared IPR. Why was a public IPR allowed to be used for private profiteering? 18/ Why was there an inordinate delay in providing more licenses to other producers in Covaxin? Even now, why is it that only three producers have been given licenses? Why not more? |
| Myth 5: Centre has abdicated its responsibility to the states Fact:The Central Government is doing all the heavy-lifting, from funding vaccine manufacturers to giving them quick approvals to ramping up production to bringing foreign vaccines to India. The vaccine procured by the Centre is supplied wholly to the states for free administration to people. All this is very much in the knowledge of the states. GoI has merely enabled states to try procuring vaccines on their own, on their explicit requests. The states very well knew the production capacity in the country and what the difficulties are in procuring vaccines directly from abroad. In fact, GoI ran the entire vaccine program from January to April & it was quite well-administrated compared to the situation in May. But states, who had not even achieved good coverage of healthcare workers and frontline workers in 3 months wanted to open up the process of vaccination and wanted more decentralisation. Health is a state subject & the liberalised vaccine policy was a result of the incessant requests being made by the states to give states more power. The fact that global tenders have not given any results only reaffirm what we have been telling the states from day one: that vaccines are in short supply in the world and it is not easy to procure them at short notice. |
19/ Myth 5: The shift of blame on to States was precisely the objective of the 19th April policy. The spirit of the State's demand was the demand for decentralisation of vaccine distribution, not procurement. It things were "well-administered" till May, why not continue it? 20/ This explanation makes the centre look silly. Was the 19 April policy introduced just to prove a point to the States? If GoI knew there were no vaccines to buy, why did it push the States into that quagmire? Is it some ego battle that is on, or serious public policy making? 21/ The GoI cannot hide the fact that it bungled on the vaccine policy. It has to accept its error and move ahead without blaming States, who are just in charge of distribution. Of course, some States may be poor in vaccination, but its GoI's job to get vaccines. Own it. |
| Myth 6: Centre is not giving enough vaccines to the states Fact: Centre is allotting enough vaccines to the states in a transparent manner as per agreed guidelines. In fact, states are also being informed in advance of the vaccine availability. Vaccine availability is going to increase in near future and much more supply would be possible. In the non-GoI channel, states are getting 25% of the doses and private hospitals are getting 25% doses. However the hiccups and issues faced by the people in the administration of these 25% doses by the states leave a lot to be desired. The behaviour of some of our leaders, who in spite of full knowledge of the facts on vaccine supply, appear on TV daily and create panic among the people is very unfortunate. This is not the time to play politics. We need everyone to unite in this fight. |
22/ Myth 6: Look at this sentence: "the hiccups and issues faced by the people in the administration of these 25% doses by the states leave a lot to be desired". You have a production capacity of less than 28 lakh doses/day. Out of that, GoI has booked 22 lakh doses/day. 23/ Of the remaining 6 lakh doses/day, private hospitals take 3 lakh doses/day. For all the States, what is remaining is 3 lakh doses/day. And after creating this sham, you turn around and blame the States? 24/ Its high time that the Niti Ayog stops being a tail of the BJP. You are a policy-making body. You have to provide reasoned policy advises to the GoI. It is not your job to enter into political fist fights with opposition parties. Seriously guys, have some sense! Do your work. |
| Myth 7: Centre is not taking any step to vaccinate children Fact: As of now, no country in the world is giving vaccines to children.* Also, WHO has no recommendation on vaccinating children. There have been studies about safety of vaccines in children, which have been encouraging. Trials in children in India are also going to begin soon. However, vaccinating children should not be decided on the basis of panic in Whatsapp groups and because some politicians want to play politics. It has to be a decision taken by our scientists after adequate data is available based on trials. *The release mentions that 'no country in the world is giving vaccines to children'. It should read 'no country in the world is giving vaccines to children under 12 years.' The other points made in that section are valid. The inadvertent typographical omission is regretted. |

One day of lockdown cost 10000 crore. We need to vaccinte only 51 crore people more..which will cost us less than 70,000 crore , at the price of Rs. 700/-. Given the money at least 10,00 crore in advance, we can get the manufacturers to bend backward... Soon, the under 18 will be the most vulnerable group..

Faster vaccination holds the key to an escape from the pandemic. The impact of the first wave was on the service sector, which suffered heavily as the activity in contact with intensive services came to a near standstill during the pandemic. Aviation tourism and hospitality have suffered religiously. RBI now says that this could be a problem looking at the current trends, and it's best to evacuate and vaccinate people faster. RBI's annual report consist says the year gone by has left a scar on the economy. It mentioned that the economic cost of this wave could be limited to the first quarter of the current financial year.video: https://www.timesnownews.com/videos/times-now/india/rbi-calls-for-faster-inoculation-service-sector-suffered-in-the-first-wave/98597

Slowing down of mobility is also reflected in toll collection volumes during April. In the agricultural sector, work demanded under the MGNREGA has tapered during the month, indicative of increased demand for farm labour.
As regards industrial activity, electricity demand is stable. Transportation remains resilient as reflected in rising freight traffic supported by the pandemic-related surge in demand for essential medical supplies. On the external front, merchandise exports and imports have recorded growth rates of 195.7 per cent and 167.1 per cent in April, partly reflecting low base effect but also pointing to the revival of both external and domestic demand.

Prime Time With Ravish: Who Is Responsible For Alleged Faulty Ventilators Bought With PM Cares Fund? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sA8SgyovaIA
May 25, 2021: More reports are beginning to emerge about ventilators bought with PM Cares funds lying unused in hospitals because of 'technical glitches'. An immediate audit of installation and operation of ventilators - provided by the central government to states - should be carried out, the Prime Minister said as he "took serious note of some reports about ventilators lying unutilised in storage in some states," a statement from his office read. Training should be provided to healthcare workers if necessary, he said. The remarks came days after the Health Ministry dismissed reports suggesting that ventilators supplied by the centre - financed from the PM-CARES Fund - to a state-run hospital in Punjab's Faridkot are lying unused because of technical glitches. (Audio in Hindi)
In a conversation with Databaaz' Govindraj Ethiraj, Ramanan Laxminarayan, Founder of Center for Disease Dynamics, Economics and Policy says stringent lockdown is likely to be extraordinarily expensive and less effective at this point in time.
He also emphasizes that taking precautions is the only short term solution to control the spread of the infection as it will take around two and a half years to even vaccinate 70% of the population.
He adds that vaccine prioritisation needs to be given to people between 45 and 75 years as case fatality rates in India are high. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zh5uzByePLQ
Q: One year into the pandemic, what according to you should be the lessons for the future pandemics? Do you agree that India needs to actively put in systems for air and sewage surveillance to predict diseases much earlier?
There are many lessons here for future pandemics, including the need for better public health surveillance, diagnostic testing capabilities and research to study the transmission of diseases from animals to humans. The other lesson is that the world has to cooperate when addressing these outbreaks – and we are only as good as our weakest link. National action can only go so far in preventing transmission. https://health.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/diagnostics/widespread-lockdowns-doesnt-make-sense-now-dr-ramanan-laxminarayan/81943245
"COVID-19: Looking Back, Looking Ahead” on Manthan w/ Dr. Ramanan Laxminarayan https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HRSJI0QZEU We are about six months into the pandemic which has by now caused enormous damage in health and economics. This is a good time to look back into how the pandemic has progressed, its impact on the economy and society, and how it was managed. This is also a time to look into the future and understand how it is likely to unfold and to learn lessons from the past few months.
Dr Ramanan Laxminarayan, a world authority on viruses and epidemics, will help us understand.
