New Delhi, Dec 14 (IANS): Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Prakash Javadekar said on Monday that the Coronavirus crisis is now "on its way out" and "soon" vaccines would be available in India too. He was speaking at the International Coronavirus Short Film Festival.
He took the opportunity to caution people against letting the guard down before antibodies are created and second dose of the vaccine administered.
Javadekar said that the pandemic has caused major upsets in countries across the globe. However, he noted, that India has been able to handle the crisis well under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, who, he said, recognised the crisis early.
