[iDJ]

My company lost 25 people in just last 1 month to Covid at just 1 location.I am not even counting the number of people who got infected which will probably run into 4 digits.I work at a place where more than 300 people in a day daily come into direct contact with me.There are numerous vendors,subcontractors and other work center who come for discussion with me.Tell me how safe i am?

If you are forced to socialize and work in lockdown at your offices. Your state government should make sure you get vaccinated. I have nothing more to say.

In begining here people were not going to vaccination center

Initially people had fear that they will have severe side effects or might die but after they saw the initial phase vaccinated people are well, others also got encouragement. However due to that now there is a shortage of vaccines. Everyone wants their doses but Cowin portal doesn't have enough slots.

As I have said previously, it's like booking a railways tatkal ticket. There is no guarantee you will get one. If you get one, there is no confirmation you will vaccine will be available on the vaccination center.

Completely reverse in here. It was always crowded. I keep on visiting hospitals throughout out the month. There was always huge lines even before the second wave started. I was seeing elderly people from even rural areas coming out to get vaccinated.

Eh atleast with Tatkal you know the timings when you can try your luck.But with vaccination slots there is no such guarantee
