Of the total number of Remdesivir vials that the Indian government has received as part of the U.S. aid, Maharashtra managed to get 52,000 vials, he added.
Maharashtra Health Minister Rajesh Tope on Friday alleged that most of the pharmaceutical companies are not supplying the mandated quantity of Remdesivir vials to the State. Remdesivir, an anti-viral drug, is used in the treatment of coronavirus patients. “The Union government has fixed the quota of Remdesivir vials to every State. However, most of the pharmaceutical companies are not supplying the vials as per the quantity allocated by the Centre,” Mr. Tope told reporters.More Related News
