Vaccine registration process will soon begin for 25.53 lakh children of Odisha in the 15-18 years age group. During the next vaccination drive, precautionary dose will be administered to over 7 lakh frontline workers and elderly persons with co-morbidities. Vaccination drive is underway at 200 stations, and if required, schools and colleges will be designated as vaccine centres, informed state health and family welfare director Bijay Panigrahi. Further, he said that eight mobile teams have been deployed in each block of Odisha. What’s concerning is 29 lakh beneficiaries in the state are yet to take the first dose of Covid vaccine.
The researchers measured the immune response in 96 generally healthy employees and found that it was uniformly stronger the longer the time period between vaccination and infection. The longest interval measured was 404 days.
Mandaviya said that over 65 percent of vaccines supplied in the world are from India.
People with underlying medical illnesses including diabetes, heart problems, hypertension, respiratory diseases, kidney troubles, etc. are even more at risk of contracting Covid, therefore the reissued Covid notice has caused them to express alarm.
The cases which are being reported in the country are mild symptoms and there is no hospitalisation. The Covid situation in other countries is critical due to their wrong policies.
