(Aditya Shaw, Intern Journalist): If you are waiting that you will get Corona vaccinated after it is made, then you are thinking wrong. You may not get vaccinated. Actually, not everyone in the country will get corona vaccine. The government made it clear on Tuesday that it had never said that the entire population would be vaccinated. Only that population will be vaccinated, so that the corona infection is severely broken. The government has also said to continue the trial of the Oxford vaccine.
Balaram Bhargava, director-general of the Indian Council of Medical Research, said at a regular press conference of the Ministry of Health, “I want to make it clear that the government has never said that the entire country will be vaccinated.” Vaccination will depend on the efficacy of the vaccine. Our aim is to break the link of the COVID-19 transition. If we are successful in giving vaccines to the people at risk and are able to break the link of infection, then there will be no need for vaccination of the entire population.
The government has ruled out the possibility of the vaccine’s timeline being affected by the alleged side effect on a Tamil Nadu man who took part in the Oxford vaccine trial. Health secretary Rajesh Bhushan said that this would not affect the timeline. He said that whenever clinical trials start, volunteers who participate in it already sign an MoU. This is what happens all over the world. Volunteers in the form are told that there may be some side effects in the trial.
