India has embarked on one of the largest COVID-19 vaccination campaigns in the world, with more than 2,600  WHO staff training nearly half a million team members.

That’s according to Dr. Roderico H. Ofrin, Representative of the World Health Organization (WHO) in India, which is one of the main UN agencies supporting the government-led drive. 

Anshu Sharma asked Dr. Ofrin about WHO’s work there, including efforts to counter hesitancy and misinformation surrounding vaccination.
