Last Updated : 28 Jul 2021 08:04:59 PM IST

 

US secretary of state Antony Blinken on Wednesday announced an additional $25 million in financial assistance from the US government to support India’s vaccination program. After delegation-level talks between the two sides, Blinken told a press briefing that the funding will help save lives by strengthening vaccine supply chains across India as the country is yet to reach a double-digit mark in the percentage of fully vaccinated individuals.

 "US has contributed more than 200 million dollars worth of COVID-19 assistance. I am pleased to announce that the United States government will send additional 25 million dollars to support vaccination efforts across India," Blinken announced during a joint press conference with External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar here.
 
"This funding will contribute to saving a life by strengthening vaccine supply chain logistics, addressing misinformation, vaccine hesitancy, and helping to train more health care workers. We are determined to end this pandemic in India and the United States. We will work to do it," he added.
