Chief Minister N. Rangasamy was administered the first dose of vaccine against COVID-19 at his residence on Sunday. The vaccination was undertaken after a sufficient waiting period since his recovery from COVID-19 in the third week of May. A press note from the office of the Chief Minister said a team of health officials was present at his house during the administering of the vaccine.
The Union and State governments provided support in several ways to the needy people, but private institutions should also extend help, especially to those requiring medical assistance, said C.P. Rajkumar, Managing Director, Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, here on Saturday. Speaking at a function to honour Inspector General of Police V. Balakrishnan and neurologist S. Meenakshisundaram with C. Palaniappan Memorial Award for their contribution to society and Nalam Kappom medical adoption of Type-1 diabetic children, he said the governments implemented numerous welfare programmes, but the timely help by a private hospital or a doctor in the neighbourhood to the people in need would go a long way in safeguarding their lives.
