Question

Directions: In the question below is given a statement followed by two courses of action numbered I and II. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true and on the basis of the information given in the statement, decide which of the suggested course of action logically follow(s) for pursuing.

Statement: India has been able to develop the vaccine for Covid 19 which has been confirmed to be highly effective.

Courses of Action:

I.Vaccination should be delayed till other countries are also successfully able to develop their own vaccines.

II.A regulated vaccination drive should be started in India.

1. Only I follows.
2. Only II follows.
3. Both I and II follow.
4. None of the above follow.

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : Only II follows.

Option 2; Only II follows. 

The statement states that India has developed its own indigenous vaccine for Covid 19

Course of action I suggests that though India has been able to create its own vaccine we must wait for other countries to develop their doses and then conduct our vaccination drive. This is an illogical move, delay means an invitation to more cases. Therefore, course of action I does not follow.

Course of action II suggests that India should start conducting a vaccination drive right away, which is a logical move as the vaccine has been proved to be effective. Therefore, course action II follows.

Hence,option 2 is correct.
