India, big vaccine exporter, now seeks imports as Covid cases soar
随着新冠肺炎病例激增,疫苗出口大国印度现在也要进口疫苗了
NEW DELHI: India is to fast-track emergency approvals for Covid-19 vaccines that have been authorised by Western countries and Japan, paving the way for possible imports of Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, and Moderna shots.
新德里:印度将加快新冠疫苗的紧急审批,为进口辉瑞、强生和Moderna疫苗铺平道路。
India has the biggest vaccine manufacturing capacity in the world and had exported tens of millions of doses before its own demand skyrocketed and led to a shortage in some states.
印度拥有全球最大的疫苗生产能力,在其自身需求飙升并导致一些邦出现短缺之前,已经出口了数千万剂疫苗。
India’s health ministry said vaccines authorised by the World Health Organisation or authorities in the United States, Europe, the United Kingdom and Japan “may be granted emergency use approval in India, mandating the requirement of post-approval parallel bridging clinical trial”.
印度卫生部表示,世界卫生组织或美国、欧洲、英国和日本当局批准的疫苗“可能会在印度获得紧急使用批准,要求在获批后进行临床试验”。
“If any of these regulators have approved a vaccine, the vaccine is now ready to be brought into the country for use, manufacture and fill-and-finish,” Vinod Kumar Paul, a senior government health official, told a news conference.
高级卫生官 员维诺德·库马尔·保罗在新闻发布会上说:“如果这些监管机构中的任何一个批准了一款疫苗,该疫苗现在就可以引进印度进行生产,灌装和使用。”
“We hope and we invite the vaccine makers such as Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson and others ... to be ready to come to India as early as possible.” Pfizer said it would work towards bringing its vaccine to India after withdrawing its application in February.
“我们希望并邀请辉瑞、Moderna、强生等疫苗制造商尽早来印度。”辉瑞公司在2月份撤回了申请后表示,将努力将疫苗引入印度。

They want to buy vaccines that fare better against the new mutations.
他们希望购买能更好地抵御新变异病毒的疫苗。

India helped many countries when they were badly in need of vaccine. A lot of diplomatic rapport and credit were secured.
印度帮助了许多急需疫苗的国家,搞好了外交关系。
Farooq
So the vaccine India made is a lemon , it does not protect against mutations.
印度生产的疫苗没效果,不能预防变异病毒。

Another blunder by Modi. He now begs for vaccines which could have been avoided had he chosen his own citizens health over monetary benefits early on.
莫迪又犯了一个错误。现在他要求其他国家提供疫苗,如果当初他选择保护自己公民的健康而不是金钱利益,现在就不必从其他国家进口疫苗了。

Everyone knows the reason why disguised Indians escape to waste time here all day. Realities in India are too grim to face.
每个人都知道为什么有些印度人整天躲在这里浪费时间。印度的现实太残酷了,难以面对。

Too much international demand for your products is a good problem to have.
国际市场对印度疫苗的需求大,是好事,也是个问题。

Bangladesh so far receives over 10 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine from India (1/3rd as a gift). Bangladesh also has ordered 30 million doses of the COVISHIELD vaccine from the Serum Institute of India.
迄今为止,孟加拉国收到了印度超过1000万剂新冠疫苗(其中三分之一是白送的)。孟加拉国还从印度血清研究所订购了3000万剂COVISHIELD疫苗。
Agnostic
Current vaccine manufacturing setup in India was not ready for such huge demand hence other companies would be allowed to setup manufacturing in India beside global giants like SII. Indians will have many choices for vaccine unlike some other countries who are totally relying on mercy of others.
印度目前的疫苗生产设施还没有准备好应对如此巨大的需求,其他公司将获准在印度设立工厂,与印度血清研究所这样的全球巨头一样。印度人有许多疫苗选择,不像其他一些国家完全依赖别人的怜悯。

Mark my words...within months after PMIK is out of power the next regime is going to accuse him of hiding the Covid numbers.
记住我的话,在伊姆兰下台几个月后,下一届印度政府将指控他隐瞒新冠病例的真实数据。

Despite the largest producer of vaccines India decided to import vaccines to fullfil it's vast requirements. But here one country is waiting for free vaccines. Compare how both countries are treating their citizens.
尽管印度是最大的疫苗生产国,还是决定进口疫苗来满足庞大的需求。但有一个国家正在等待免费疫苗。比较一下两国对待本国公民的方式。

@A,
Boycott if you can
如果可以的话,抵制
FAZ@A,
By your logic, Spain should be boycotted first for the Spanish flu that killed far more across the world. Britain should be boycotted for the black deaths it caused.
按照你的逻辑,首先应该被抵制的是西班牙,之前西班牙流感在全世界造成的死亡更多。英国应该因黑死病而受到抵制。

There is a huge difference...India has the money to import vaccines unlike some countries.

Don’t make it sound like India was giving away free vaccine to other countries, India was getting paid,
不要说得好像印度是免费向其他国家提供疫苗的,印度收了钱的
