Facing backlash over the export of indigenously-produced vaccines during the second COVID-19 wave, the Centre has said that the "entire globe is a unit" during a pandemic, in an affidavit submitted to the Supreme Court. The government said it envisaged vaccine export as part of a "global action to vaccination." Between January and March, India exported over 6.6 crore vaccine doses to 93 countries.
