More than 2.5 lakh cases of corona were vaccinated in the country

(PTI) New Delhi, Dt

More than 2.5 lakh health workers and front line workers have been vaccinated in the four days since the launch of the corona vaccination campaign in India. That number is more than double the number of active cases of corona in the country at present, the health ministry said. Concerns raised so far about corona vaccines in the country have proved meaningless during the vaccination campaign, said Policy Commission member (Health) V.S. That. Said Paul.

The health ministry said on Tuesday that "4,6,6 people have been vaccinated in the last three hours in 2,50 sessions in the country." With this, a total of 2,8,08 people have been vaccinated in four days. The total number of active cases of corona in India has come down steadily to just two lakh (200,00), which is only 1.50% of the total cases of corona. In addition, the number of daily cases of corona has dropped to close to 10,000. At the national level, after about seven months, Corona's daily cases have reached 10,000.

Meanwhile, a committee formed by the government on the Koro epidemic and a member of the policy commission (health) V. That. Paul said the concerns that had been raised about corona vaccines in the country had been disproved in the four days since the vaccination campaign began. While a total of more than 2.5 lakh people have been vaccinated in the country in four days, only 0.15 per cent of them have been found to have side effects and only 0.006 per cent have been hospitalized. This is the lowest rate in the first three days of a vaccination campaign in any country in the world. These statistics prove that vaccines made in India are quite safe.

V. That. Paul added that it took a lot of hard work to make the corona vaccine. Although vaccines made in India are quite safe, it is a matter of concern that only health workers, especially doctors and nurses, refuse to be vaccinated. Today people all over the world are eagerly waiting to get the corona vaccine. We do not know what form this epidemic could take and how big it could get. Therefore health workers should get vaccinated. Experts say that after the vaccination, there are some common complaints like fever, restlessness, pain where the vaccine is given. There is no need to worry or be afraid of it.
