The Union Health Ministry yesterday said most of the medical supplies required for tackling the coronavirus pandemic are now being manufactured domestically. The Ministry said that in recent months, the domestic industry had been “encouraged and facilitated” to manufacture and supply essential medical equipment like PPE kits, N95 masks and ventilators -- suggesting a boost to the Centre’s ‘Aatmanirbhar Bharat’ campaign.
