India could make more than enough doses, not only for themselves but for other countries - if not for the fact that the corporations who own the intellectual property have decided to maximise profit and only grant exclusive licenses (Serum Institute of India) nor not grant licenses at all because there is no money to be made.
I won't get into politics, but PM Modi failed the people of India and now they need urgent help.
In early March PM Modi assured PM Trudeau that they would do their best to support Canada's vaccination efforts. We were desperate. We temporarily suspended the AZ vaccines and they were sitting in fridges. Now Canada has decided to extend the expiration dates for second jabs of AZ. I hardly find that noble when India is dealing with a catastrophe.
