The Apex Court upholds the present COVID-19 Policy to be irrational The Hon’ble Court in Re: Distribution of Essential Supplies and Services during pandemic, held that the present policy of the Government wherein the persons of age group 45+ are given free vaccination and those falling in 18- 45 years are given paid vaccination by State Governments and Private hospitals is arbitrary and irrational. "Due to the changing nature of the pandemic, we are now faced with a situation where the 18-44 age group also needs to be vaccinated, although priority may be retained between different age groups on a scientific basis.."
