Vaccinations are the 'end game' to the COVID-19 crisis in India: Fauci

White House chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci appeared on ABC's "This Week."

Dramatically ramping up COVID-19 vaccinations is key to ending the crisis in India, White House chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci told ABC's "This Week" anchor George Stephanopoulos. "The endgame of this all, George, is going to be to get people vaccinated," Fauci said Sunday. "India is the largest vaccine-producing country in the world. They've got to get their resources," Fauci continued. "That's the reason why other countries need to chip in to be able to get either supplies for the Indians to make their own vaccines." India is currently experiencing a devastating surge of COVID-19 with record-breaking cases, hospitalizations and deaths. The country's health care system is teetering on the edge of collapse as hospitals are overcrowded and much-needed medical supplies, especially oxygen, are in low supply.
