Anthony S Fauci, Chief Medical Advisor to the U.S. President and Director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases speaks with Sriram Lakshman in Washington DC on the COVID-19 situation in India, therapeutics, mixing vaccines and more. You know, that's going to depend on a number of things. First of all, I know India unfortunately has not had the opportunity to vaccinate as many people as we would like to see. Something like 3% of the population is fully vaccinated and somewhere a little bit more than 10% have received one dose. So you’ve got to continue, to the best of your ability, to vaccinate as many people as possible. Until more people get vaccinated, one needs to be concerned about making sure people wear masks, particularly in indoor settings when the ventilation is not as good as you would expect, compared to the outdoors.More Related News
