AAA “I think it’s a historic day and I volunteered to take the vaccine to remove concerns and build confidence among all doctors so that they too can get themselves vaccinated without fear,” said R. Balasubramaniam, founder of Swami Vivekananda Youth Movement, Mysuru.
Dr. Balasubramaniam, who was among the first three persons who got the first dose of Covishield vaccine after the launch of the largest vaccination drive at the Trauma Care Centre on PKTB Hospital premises here on Saturday, congratulated the district administration and the health authorities on the way arrangements were made for the drive. “It was all well organised,” he said. “Hopefully, we can control the pandemic in the next three or four months if we continue with the way we are tackling it. However, despite the arrival of the vaccine, we should not forget to wear masks, wash hands, and maintain social distancing.”
