India s vaccine diplomacy wins friends in Caribbean, draws global praise | India News

The Indian-made shots offer poorer countries an alternative to Chinese vaccines, which Beijing has been pushing across the region. The external affairs ministry said it plans to supply vaccines mostly free of charge to 49 countries in Latin America, the Caribbean, Asia and Africa. So far, India has distributed 22.9 million doses under its “Vaccine Friendship” programme out of which 64.7 lakh doses have been supplied as a grant. On Thursday, Dominican Republic interior minister Raquel Pena said that India had donated 30,000 doses to her country. That’s on the heels of the 70,000 doses India donated to Dominica enough to vaccinate the whole population and 10,000 it provided to Barbados earlier this month.
