First 10 days 20 idlis were available for 10 people everyday (60+ category). Because of hesitancy only 2 people ate and16 were wasted. Next 10 days 50 idlis for 25 people per day (45+ category). Again 15 people ate & 20 idlis were wasted. 1/n
Opposition parties wanted it to open for all and centre agreed. As per current available capacity 200 idlis can be prepared per day for 100 people. Now, 18+ & all those who were hesitant have lined up and questioning govt. Current requirement is 500 per day. 2/n
Further, as per agreement,some idlis are to be given free to grocery supplier for distribution amongst poor. Instead of educating & saving the public, opposition parties behaved irresponsibly. They created doubt & fear about idlis saying that there is poison in idli. 3/n
1. "Covid-19 is dead now, and finally we can live without masks and can reunite with our friends and families" - how happy does this sounds? Everybody wishes to go back to normal, for that please wear your masks. #WearAMask
2. Today, this situation is really out of hands. Our whole generation is falling apart. We have lost hopes on our dreams, ambitions, studies, career and all we want to do is to SURVIVE. We want to live. We want to fight this so badly. #fightagainstcorona
3.We don't want to see our future getting destroyed right in front of our eyes because of this virus. Some of us might be thinking, do we even have a future? Yes, we do if we stay safe and follow all the protocols. It feels as we have aged, without actually ageing. #GenZ
So finally I have an answer to what has happened to Novavax production in India, thanks to the difficulty getting raw materials out of the US. The news was worse than I expected.
There is says, Stan Erck of that firm, a "global raw material supply difficulty".

Novavax lines in India and the UK have been affected by shortages of items needed from the US.
Start with the UK which has been manufacturing this vaccine for a while (not yet approved).
Novavax is struggling with 3 key things: biobags, media, and filters. @halhod

Novavax is doing its best to operate its lines at "full cadence". But when they have missing items the lines have to shut down.
For the UK they are "weeks" behind where they would have been had they had all the raw materials needed.
