The Hindu
It will provide week by week update of doses administered, mortality status and breakthrough infections
A COVID-19 vaccine tracker that would provide a week by week update of vaccine doses administered, mortality status and breakthrough infections etc was being developed and it would be available on the Union Health Ministry’s website in a few days time, according to Director General of the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) Dr. Balram Bhargava. At a press conference of the Ministry on Thursday, he advocated low-key celebrations of festivals. Crowding and festival related travel should not be encouraged. “Responsible travel rather than revenge travel should be practised,’’ he said. On the need to get vaccinated even after getting infected, Dr. Bhargava said recommendations were in place specifying that a person should take the vaccination three months after the infection.More Related News
