Cyrus Poonawalla

The Chairman of the Serum Institute of India (SII) Cyrus Poonawalla on August 13 criticized the Modi government's decision to ban the vaccine exports as a ''very bad move''. Poonawalla also said, ''My Son asked me not to open my mouth. But It's my view that exports ought to be opened.'' He said those who paid ''crores in advance'' for vaccines were blaming the company for denying the supply.
