President Bidya Devi Bhandari has issued an ordinance to amend the Drugs Act (1978) for the third time.
On Thursday, the Ministry of Health and Population had proposed a draft of the ordinance to the Cabinet to cover legal issues related to a potential vaccine roll-out.

A ministry official had told the Post earlier that the proposal was sent to the Cabinet in advance to avoid legal complications (such as the ones faced during the roll-out of antiviral medicine remdesivir).
