Welcome the new year tonight – safely
With the UK having given regulatory clearance to the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine, India is expected to soon follow suit. Indeed the coming days may even see the rollout of the Bharat Biotech vaccine in addition to this one. As Gavi CEO Seth Berkley has said, if 2020 will be remembered for the devastation, in 2021 we should see the largest and most rapid global deployment of vaccines the world has ever seen. Getting this right will require concerted effort from all stakeholders, state and citizens alike.So for our part, let’s start the new year right. Although it is true that for five days running daily deaths in India have been below 300, something not seen for the last six months, what is worrying is that the UK strain has already been identified in different parts of the country. In the wake of this strain the UK is seeing a record number of cases. It is in light of all this that various governments have put restrictions in place for tonight’s celebrations. It is important for both businesses and partygoers to abide by these restrictions. Bear in mind this is how India can recover health and wealth in 2021.
