1:47Now PlayingPresident Joe Biden said he intends to send vaccines from the U.S. to India as the country battles the worst coronavirus surge in the world, but did not specify timing for a decision or shipments.
Biden said Tuesday that in a call with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he discussed “when we’ll be able to send actual vaccines to India, which is my intention to do.”
In the meantime, the U.S. is providing aid including the therapeutic drug remdisivir and machinery for vaccine manufacturing, Biden said.
The Biden administration announced Monday that it plans to send about 60 million doses of AstraZeneca Plc’s vaccine abroad after a U.S. Food and Drug Administration review of its manufacturing. The vaccine isn’t yet authorized for use in the U.S., but it’s been cleared in many other countries and Biden has been under pressure to release the federal government’s stockpile for export.
