Indians should be prepared to get booster shots to assist the complete fight against the Covid-19

India is on the right track to defeating the covid 19. India just attained the milestone of vaccinating more than 1 billion people. Senior citizens and persons with comorbidities were given first priority. In the first instance, the susceptible group was considered to be given doses.

People, especially those vulnerable to the Covid-19 infection in India, should be mentally prepared to take a booster dose of Covid-19 vaccination to protect themselves from new varieties and assist complete the fight against the virus, according to recent statements made by Indian experts.

While India is on track to fully vaccinate its adult population, advanced countries such as the United States are planning to deliver a booster dosage to guarantee that new Covid-19 virus types do not develop and become a big concern.

Doctors believe that fresh strains of the virus may emerge in society, and that vulnerable people should be prepared to receive a booster dosage of the vaccine to ensure that the virus's resistance is comprehensive.

"According to several studies, vaccination-induced immunity to coronavirus may diminish with time. While individuals who are younger and healthier are at a lesser risk, those who are at high risk must be well equipped to deal with the threat. Many people in India had their second dose more than six months ago, giving them plenty of time to reassess their antibody levels”.

 "No vaccine created too far has guaranteed 100 percent protection against this virus, and Indians, like the West, must be prepared to take an additional booster dosage if necessary.". Dr. M Sai Sudhakar, Chief Interventional Cardiologist, Gleneagles Global Hospital stated

Even after receiving two doses of the Covid-19 vaccine, persons who are extremely immunocompromised, according to Dr. Suresh Reddy, Consultant Neuro Physician, Aware Gleneagles Global Hospital said, are at a high risk of suffering more from coronavirus infection.

"Such persons require particular care and ongoing medical attention to ensure that the risk is minimized to the greatest extent possible." These patients in the high-risk category or who are seriously immunocompromised must undoubtedly be prepared to get a booster dose when the scientific and medical community deems it necessary," he said.
