My dad got a slot for today. We are leaving for his vaccination. 

My mom also got a slot but she may be denied vaccine as she is taking a medicine for rheumatoid aithritis that suppresses immune system.

They are getting a consent form signed. There is a point about taking medical opinion if someone's on immune suppressing medicine. My mom's on one for RA. Dunno what to do. 

 

My dad has same condition. He also takes immune suppression medicine as well..
According to Govt's press release, people who are taking immune suppression medicine are advised to take it, even if they are below 60 years.

Yeah. We got my mom's vaccination done after consulting the docs at the vaccination venue. So far she is fine.

That's 10% less than Covishield.

 

 

10% more.

 

Covishield shows 91% efficacy only when you take half dose in first shot. Since it was done by mistake they have not made it the standard without testing first. With two full doses the efficacy is around 72 for covishield.

Do keep us updated how the second shot goes and if there are any side effects.

 None of my colleagues or I got any symptoms after second dose. It's been ten days since, so i guess it's pretty safe. 

 

I am trying to get an appointment for mom but somehow the website stops responding at one step or the other.

9855 cases in Maharashtra today. Still people don't care.

 

Ppl are same everywhere man, it is the govt that makes difference.

UP did 1.4-1.6L tests per day. It is the biggest success story, in the world.

UP: Tests Per Million Pop 1,40,596.4 -  Cases 2,683.8

 

MH: Tests Per Million Pop 1,35,154.3 - Cases 17,839.8

 

UP tested at least 7 times more than MH per infected,  which means a lot of primary and secondary contacts and contact tracing was done.
