Can Serum Institute Match 1 Billion Vaccine Doses?

Can the Serum Institute match the one billion vaccine doses that President Xi promised Africa yesterday? "One billion, very easily. I mean, we could do that in six months if we're getting the purchase orders, because if you look at our production now it is 250 million per month. You've got other Indian vaccine manufacturers also, scaling up quite nicely. So I mean India itself. If you look at all the vaccine manufacturers and our second vaccine CovoVax. we ourselves again across 300 million per month as production, you've got other vaccine manufacturers probably doing about 100 million. Maybe more than that together, maybe 150 million. You know, India's output vaccine manufacturing is very soon by the month of December, January is going to be more than four hundred - four fifty million a month. So very easily can we provide that to the continent of Africa and have enough stock to protect India simultaneously in the case of further outbreaks or booster knows is that we wanna give or anything else," Adar Poonawalla said.
