GO FOR PRECAUTION DOSES

As the sub-variant of omicron XE has started knocking the doors of people in the country with Gujarat becoming the first state to report the first case it becomes imperative to go for the precaution doses which government has approved for the people above 18 years of age after April 10 as strengthening of immunity against the virus corona is vital for fortifying people against any probable threat of new variants of the deadly virus which might struck the country in the coming times as suggested by the experts in the field. It is pertinent to mention that the precaution dose will be of the same COVID-19 vaccine as the one used for the administration of the first two doses. Reportedly, the precaution dose of COVID vaccines is available to everyone aged above 18 years at the private vaccination centres from April 10. All those above the age of 18 years, who have completed nine months after the administration of the second dose, are eligible for this additional dose to fight the contagion in a stronger manner. There is no need for fresh registration for the precaution dose as all due beneficiaries are already registered on the CoWIN platform. The jabs administered must mandatorily be recorded on CoWIN. Vaccination has been proved to be the most effective antidote for the infection coronavirus because the Omicron wave which is also known as third wave in J&K has passed away without much loss unlike in the case of second wave where hundreds of deaths were reported. The reason behind safe passage of third wave was large scale vaccination and therefore to combat any of the upcoming waves it is advisable that people should not miss any vaccine dose proposed by the government because the same is advised by the experts in the medical field after performing desired experimentation and getting favourable results. India has achieved a lot of respect across the world for its benevolent vaccination programme which was best among all the countries. No doubt the BJP Government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi has taken several unprecedented steps to make this programme a great success, but the role of people of this country is also praiseworthy in the fight against coronavirus.
