Question

letter to editor paying attention to black marketing during pandemic​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The Centre has pegged the prices of Covishield vaccine at ₹150-200 for itself, ₹400 for States and ₹600 for private hospitals. Such differential pricing will embolden black marketing. Though the government is claiming the availability of the life-saving drug Remdesivir, the reality is invariance. The vaccines earmarked for the Centre and States would go into the hands of private parties who will be sourcing large quantities from government hospitals and not the manufacturer. The fallout of this would be rigging of records and the non-availability of the vaccine in government hospitals. The Centre ought to revisit its pricing policy.
