Indian Doctors: Vaccines are rituals. Policymakers stupid, compassionless.

It is the ritualistic approach that gives Dr Puliyel an easy stick to beat the health ministry with. He says. “We do not have a programme for ‘control of childhood communicable diseases’, while we have a robust vaccine delivery platform, giving vaccines as rituals, without accurately measuring the outcome and carefully documenting every case of vaccine failure.” 

And in a final note of distress, he adds: “The point is that the Indian health ministry leaders are either incredibly stupid or absolutely compassionless. Could be both.”
