NEW DELHI, Nov 22 — India is not considering authorising booster Covid-19 doses yet as many in the country have been naturally infected and the government believes two doses of a vaccine offers sufficient protection for now, three sources with knowledge of the matter said.
So far, 81 per cent of India’s adults have received at least one dose while 43 per cent have had two doses. Vaccination for people under 18 has not yet begun. The source said that once most adults have had two vaccine doses, the government could make boosters optional.India reported the most Covid-19 case and death figures in the world in April and May and government surveys have shown that nearly 70% of Indians were naturally infected by July. The country has so far logged 34.5 million infections - the most after the United States - with more than 465,000 deaths.
