India needs to change its Covid vaccination strategy now. Here's how it can do it

With India once again reporting a rapid increase in Covid-19 infections, despite starting vaccinations more than two months ago, it's time to tweak our Covid-19 strategy in accordance with the surge in cases.

More than two months into India's vaccination drive against Covid-19, the initiative is being met with what is seen as 'vaccine restlessness', a term that found mention in the Government of India Communication Strategy document detailing the eagerness of people to get a shot against Covid-19. The increase in 'vaccine restlessness' has been directly proportional to the reduction in 'vaccine hesitancy' and fear of more restrictions as atleast one state in the country sees a second wave of the infection. The chorus for allowing everyone to get a dose of the vaccine is only getting louder. Restlessness is not without reason.
