India is likely to restart covid vaccine exports in the next year
Now, the country focuses on vaccinating its adult population
Once done with that, India will have sufficient vaccines to share with the rest of the world
Earlier, India had been shipping out shots to poorer nations
India was also expected to be a major supplier to the WHO-backed Covax effort
The effort aims for global equitable access to the covid vaccines
But, the dangerous second wave and delay in the local supply of covid vaccine made India prioritise its citizens
And hence, India halted overseas shipments in April
