Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said that India has adopted a completely digital approach while planning its vaccination strategy as it helped in tracking the usage of vaccination and minimising the wastage.
Addressing CoWin Global Conclave via Video conferencing, PM Modi began by remarking that there was no parallel to such a pandemic like Covid 19 in hundred years and no nation, however powerful, can solve a challenge like this in isolation.
“The biggest lesson from the Covid-19 pandemic is that for humanity and the human cause, we have to work together and move ahead together. We have to learn from each other and guide each other about our best practices,” said the Prime Minister.
Underlining India’s Commitment for sharing experiences, expertise and resources with the global community, the Prime Minister also expressed India’s eagerness to learn from global practices. Emphasising the importance of technology in the fight against pandemic, Mr Modi said India made its Covid tracking and tracing App open source as soon as it was technically feasible. He pointed out that with nearly 200 million users, the ‹Aarogya Setu› app is a readily available package for developers. Having been used in India, the Prime Minister told the global audience, you can be sure that it has been tested in the real world for speed and scale.
He added that given the importance of vaccination, India decided to adopt a completely digital approach while planning its vaccination strategy. This helps people in proving that they have been vaccinated, expediting the normalcy in the post-pandemic globalised world. A safe, secure and trustworthy proof helps people to establish when, where and by whom they have been vaccinated.
In line with India’s philosophy of considering the whole world as one family, the Prime Minister said that Covid vaccination platform CoWin is being prepared to be made open source. Soon, it will be available to any and all countries.
