Will only supply Covid vaccines to GOI: Pfizer
May 24, 2021

Pharmaceutical major Pfizer's statement on the supply of its Covid vaccine to India: "Pfizer will supply Covid vaccine only to central governments and  supra-national organisations for deployment in national immunization programs. Allocation of doses and implementation plan within a country is a decision for local governments based on relevant health authority guidance. 

"Pfizer's discussions with the Government of India are ongoing and we are hopeful to bring the Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine for use in the country."

The statement comes amid the governments of Delhi and Punjab saying that Pfizer and Moderna have declined to sell coronavirus vaccines to the state government as they want to directly deal with the Centre.
