New Delhi (India Science Wire): India has begun one of the world’s biggest COVID-19 vaccination programs. While countries across the globe are asking India for access to vaccines, there are incidences of misinformation-driven vaccination hesitancy in the country. To address this, Dr Harsh Vardhan, Union Minister of Health and Family Welfare, launched Information, Education and Communication (IEC) posters prepared by the Health Ministry.

Dr Harsh Vardhan said “Let us put a STOP to these falsehoods”. He appealed to people to seek the correct information from credible and authentic sources such as the Health Ministry, Press Information Bureau (PIB), Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, MyGov website etc.” Dr Harsh Vardhan said that India is one of the few countries to halt the march of COVID-19 and simultaneously develop a vaccine for COVID-19, “thanks to the leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi who bestowed his personal attention to let the country get rid of the pandemic.”
