The Prime Minister said that even if the vaccine is accepted, corona precautions should be taken. Vaccine immunity is achieved only after receiving both doses of the vaccine. Today, about three lakh health workers are being vaccinated. Two doses should be taken at 28-day intervals.
India is a model for the world. It usually takes years to develop a vaccine. But in such a short time, not one but two ‘Made in India’ vaccines were ready.
