Govt approves proposal of producing Russian, Chinese Covid-19 vaccines in Bangladesh Star Digital Report Star Digital Report
The government has taken the initiative to produce Chinese and Russian Covid-19 vaccines through local companies in Bangladesh.
Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs today approved a proposal to produce the vaccines Russia s Sputnik V and China s Sinopharm in Bangladesh.
Cabinet Division Additional Secretary Shahida Akhter confirmed the development to reporters after a meeting held virtually.
The secretary also said that several Bangladeshi pharmaceutical companies have the capability to produce the Russian and Chinese Covid-19 vaccines.
But Shahida did not mention the names of the companies.
The government faces a challenge in reaching the target population in need of financial assistance amid the Covid pandemic in the absence of a comprehensive database of poor people.
To store basic information of all citizens, a Cabinet Division committee in November last year sent a proposal to the Prime Minister s Office for having a separate authority that will provide services relating to National Identity (NID) cards.
However, the proposal has been lying with the PMO for more than four months. We are yet to get any feedback from the Prime Minister s Office…, Cabinet Division Additional Secretary Sultan Ahmed, the chief of the committee, told The Daily Star recently.
