State Health Department Director Bijay Panigrahi today said the booster vaccination have been initiated at 2320 health centres across Odisha. Of the total, 19 centres are from Bhubaneswar alone.

Based on the neutralisation pattern, the researchers said, one booster shot can protect against BA.2 and Deltacron, and they do not suspect that BA.3 will become predominant because it is sensitive to neutralisation by even two doses.

Individuals 12 years of age and older with weaker immune systems such as those who have undergone solid organ transplantation are also eligible for the shots at least 4 months after receipt of a fifth booster dose.
