It has been a year and the country is still reeling under Coronavirus.

Now, in the second stage, those above 50 years of age, and those below 50 years of age with comorbidities or having high-risk of infection, will be vaccinated. Kohinoor Hospital has joined the vaccination drive as it has been given nod to the Covid vaccine and it has started administering vaccines for common people. Today, Senior Shiv Sena leader and former Maharashtra CM Manohar Joshi took the first jab of Covaxin to prevent the transmission of Coronavirus.

Senior Shiv Sena leader and former Maharashtra CM Manohar Joshi said, “Currently, there is a rapid surge in Corona cases. It is the need of the hour to get vaccinated and lead a healthy life, and that is the reason I have come forward and taken my first dose of vaccination.
I wasn’t scared nor did I panic while getting vaccinated. Do not believe rumors or panic before taking the vaccination. Now, the common people are also allowed to take the vaccination. So, one’s eligible for it and having comorbidities should get vaccinated as soon as possible.”
