The other day, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy made critical comments on the promoters of Bharat Biotech, the company behind Covaxin. He tried to cast aspirations on caste and the political basis on the promoters for delaying vaccines to AP.
Suchitra Ella, the co-founder of Bharat Biotech made indirect comments expressing displeasure on Jagan’s comments. She says the team is disheartened to hear Some states complaining about their intentions but did not name Jagan.
“Covaxin dispatched 10/5/21.18 states have been covered thou in smaller shipments. Quite disheartening to the teams to hear Some states complaining about our intentions. 50 of our employees are off work due to covid, yet we continue to work under pandemic lockdowns 24×7 for U (sic),” she tweeted from her Twitter account.
She also enclosed a picture with the names of eighteen states which received Covaxin doses consignment as of May 10th. Andhra Pradesh is the first state on the list.
