The government does not function from the perspective of a “healthy few” who believes that natural immunity and not vaccines is the “gold standard” to counter the COVID-19 pandemic, the Supreme Court said in a judgment on Friday.
A Bench, without diving deep into the science of the debate behind natural immunity versus vaccination, applied common sense to argue that the government has to bank on immunisation in a country where a sizeable chunk of its population is elderly, sick, anaemic and suffer from co-morbidities which may prove fatal if exposed to the COVID-19 virus.
