Speaking on the occasion, Anuradha Juju Palakurthi said, “Artists have catalyzed many social movements by driving participation and awareness. The VAX India Now team is honored to count some of the biggest hearts for support. Scientists estimate that Indian herd immunity kicks in with 600m more adult vaccinations. India has already demonstrated that it has the capacity to vaccinate 10m people a day. Strictly theoretically, this problem can be solved in 60 days. With concerted global citizen-ownership we can compress the actual time. The event is one of the many steps being taken worldwide by many organizations and individuals.”
