New Delhi: India’s vaccination against COVID-19 increased by 67 per cent as the country administered 6.77 crore doses in the 13 days from June 21 to July 3.

Since India returned to COVID vaccines’ centralised procurement and distribution, it vaccinated one-fifth of all doses since the process started on January 16, reported The Indian Express.

According to the data, daily inoculations have averaged 52.08 lakh since June 21, compared to 31.20 lakh in the preceding 13 days.
