Pranam Let there not be any impediments to vaccination please; vaccination is a process in science which may or may not succeed; but it will not go a waste; there is no comparison as some doctors market 60% ,70% etc. The truth is never ascertained; the results seen or the perception could understate or overstate any theory; in the meantime, marketing is the day where many professionals succumb to pressure and finance; many are using them ; may be world has to come back; lets do it. Incidentally having completed 2 doses me and my wife are hale and healthy and we had the covishield only. K R IRS 17421
