Q2. Pricing of ‘Covishield & Covaxin’.
Why should our Govt pay more i.e. ₹200 for AstraZeneca Vaccine to Serum Institute of India, more so in view of their promise to supply the vaccine “at no profit”?2/4 pic.twitter.com/ceOqgtj2so

Q3. Why is the Price of Corona Vaccine ₹1,000/dose in ‘Open Market’?
When ‘Covishield Vaccine’ is being supplied at ₹200/dose to Govt by SII, why should they be permitted to make a 500% profit for ‘Off the Shelf’ purchase & profiteer at cost of people?
