Indians will find a loophole to black market the vaccines no matter what procedure the govt follows. 18-44 person books a slot somehow. Goes to the vaccination center and is turned away saying vaccine is not available but gets a sms later about receiving the dose anyhow. The person with legitimate booking doesnt get the dose and the hospital diverts it. Be careful when you guys book your slot and get it done from centers that are not indulging in such practices. a simple twitter keyword search should help. Holy f**k. Same happened with a relative just yesterday. He booked via Arogya Setu app, and I was blaming the app and told him to book via CoWin instead.

Banz Posted May 5, 2021 Report Share Posted May 5, 2021 1 hour ago, KunjanPSD said: I have seen this first hand. A person in my extended family had his oxygen in the 70s and was in a really bad state. Doc prescribed the HRCT but the damn guy refused because he heard Guleria speak about cancer. This is the issue I was talking about. Guleria was right about needing HRCT in moderate cases but the way he communicated that by saying the 300-400x statistic was completely wrong. Eventually they were able to force him to get the CT done. People are so bad at risk assesment. Granted, no patient is ever rational, but you expect the relatives to be able to think rationally. Even if HRCT has a high chance of causing cancer, you do not have time or luxury to worry about that when you are dying of Covid. Also, Dr. Guleria needs to be seriously reprimanded for making such a reckless panic inducing statement at the peak of a pandemic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also be careful about clicking on the reschedule option once you get a slot. I tried doing it after my wife got a slot at a different center. But her center got booked by the time i could make the switch. So i just went back and my booking was intact. When i went for my dose the Hospital had my name in their records but to comfirm the jab they got to do something at their end on the computer. Upon clicking on my name the system gave them the error "person has opted out from vaccination". When I clicked on reschedule my slot must have opened up. The humble and genuine people that they are they registered me again from their end and gave me the dose anyway. So technically walk in vaccination can happen if the Hospital peeps so wish.

The scammer has family members looking to get vaccinated? There are several such possibilities. Edited May 5, 2021 by Bhpian Bali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or simply ask the original source to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaccination is still optional. Why would anyone face a problem if they are not shown to be vaccinated (unless a travel certificate is needed).

This is a minor inconvenience at most. The bigger issue is the people that havent been vaccinated but according to the govt they have.
