Covishied, whose one dose is being given at Rs 250 in private hospitals and free in government hospitals presently, will cost Rs 600 for private hospitals. This has been informed by Serum Institute of India (SII) in a press release on April 21, 2021.


It may be noted that from May 1, 2020, the vaccination program has been extended to those who are 18 years of age and above.
The SII stated that it will provide the vaccine at Rs 600 to state governments.
"For the next two months we will address the limited capacity by scaling up vaccine production. Going ahead, 50% of our capacities will be served to government of India's program and the remaining 50% of the capacity will be for the state governments and private hospitals," reads the press release signed by CEO Adar C Poonawalla.
