Home Minister Amit Shah: Remdisivir export banned as a precautionary measure but panic buying leading to a shortage
<p>
<strong>Union Home Minister Amit Shah has said that the production of the life-saving drug Remdesivir is &#39;adequate&#39; and as a precautionary measure its export has been banned.</strong></p>
<p>
Shah said on Sunday, &quot;The production of Remdisivir is adequate. We have banned export as precautionary but in panic people are buying in bulk which is leading to a shortage.&quot;<br />
<br />
&quot;I appeal to the people to buy it when only the doctor prescribes,&quot; he added.<br />
<br />
The response comes after many state governments, including Maharashtra have complained about the shortage of the injections.<br />
<br />
India on Sunday reported 2,61,500 fresh Covid cases, the highest single-day spike ever, pushing the country&#39;s overall Covid tally to 1,47,88,109, according to the Health Ministry data.</p>
