Even as the nation waits for a COVID-19 vaccine with bated breath, the recently formed citizens' movement group, Awaken India, put forward a question - Is a vaccine even required for COVID-19? - at a press meet held at the Marathi Patrakar in CSMT on Friday afternoon. Various speakers, including students, activists and lawyers spoke on the topic and highlighted aspects like faulty RT-PCR tests, herd immunity, legal accountability and after effects of vaccine trials.
