PM Modi kicks-off the Covid-19 vaccine drive, urges people to show patience

India's vaccination drive is based on principles of humanity, says the prime minister

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday launched ‘world’s largest vaccination drive’ against Covid-19, congratulating citizens and scientists for the feat. He cautioned people to ensure that they take both the doses at one month’s gap and show patience as the country begins to give the antidote to its huge population.

“Don't make the mistake of taking one dose and then forgetting about dose two and don’t forget coronavirus appropriate behaviour after getting the dose. The patience with which you fought coronavirus, show the same patience during vaccination now,” Modi said.
