New Delhi: Corona has started spreading once again. This time its BF.7 variant is being said to be highly contagious. The new variant is already wreaking havoc in China and lakhs of new Covid-19 cases are being registered every day. Apart from China, other countries like Japan, Argentina, South Korea and America have also seen a spurt in the cases of covid-19. The Government of India has also become alert regarding Corona and many high level meetings have been held.
However, we do not need to panic or be afraid of Corona because we are safer and stronger than before. Most of the people have got the corona vaccine. The government is appealing to the people to apply booster dose.
The central government has approved Bharat Biotech’s intranasal covid vaccine to accelerate the booster dose program. It will be used as a heterologous booster and is currently available in private hospitals for Rs.800 excluding GST. That is, you can now apply it as a booster dose.
At present it is available for vaccination in private hospitals, which will soon be included in the government program as well.
