India coronavirus: Every adult is now eligible for vaccine shots, but some states say they have none to offer

With hospitals running out of space and India’s authorities reporting more than 300,000 coronavirus cases each day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced last month that he would extend the vaccine rollout beyond health care workers and the country’s most vulnerable in a bid to tackle India’s spiraling Covid crisis.

So far, just over 2% of India’s 1.3 billion people have been fully immunized with one of two vaccines — significantly lower than the United States, where 29.8% of the population are fully immunized.
