Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya, Union Minister of Health and Family Welfare released a commemorative Postal Stamp on COVID-19 Vaccine to mark the 1st anniversary of India's National Covid-19 Vaccination program.
The stamp shows a health worker inoculating a senior citizen with Covaxin.
India's collective fight against Covid pandemic began on January 16 last year with the vaccination drive across the nation.
Covaxin is one of the two mainstays of India’s immunisation programme against Covid-19, along with Covishield.
It was developed by Hyderabad-based Bharat Biotech International Limited and Serum Institute of India Private Limited in collaboration with the Indian Council of Medical Research.
