Expert has demanded to vaccinate children...


In the first three waves of Corona, only a mild level of this epidemic was seen in children in India. A recent survey in India, about 40 to 50% of children were likely to be corona infected. During this, only those children who were already suffering from some other disease were found to be having problems. However, experts say that if the cases of serious infection in children were less in the first three waves, then it is not guaranteed that there will be no danger to children in the new wave as well. That's why caution is very important.

Vaccination to children

Dr Pramod Jog, a member of the maharashtra Pediatric Task Force, has demanded the government to vaccinate children between the ages of 5 and 12 immediately. He has especially appealed to vaccinate those children on priority, who are already suffering from some other diseases i.e. 'at-risk children'. He has warned that such children may have to deal with a more deadly infection of the corona, which we call multi-system inflammatory syndrome or colloquially 'hit and run infection' case. Apart from this, he has also warned of showing symptoms of 'long Covid' in children.
