The COVID-19 vaccination campaign in the United States is an ongoing mass immunization campaign for the COVID-19 pandemic. Mass vaccinations began on December 14, 2020. The vaccines that are currently prevailing under the FDA's emergency use of authorization are Pfizer–BioNTech vaccine, Moderna vaccine, and Johnson & Johnson vaccine. Free vaccination against COVID-19 commenced in India on January 16, 2021, and the government is urging all its citizens to be immunized, in what is expected to be the largest vaccination program in the world. The Indian government has taken urgent measures to expand the country's vaccine manufacturing capacity and has also developed an efficient digital system to address and monitor all the aspects of vaccine administration.
