The risk of corona epidemic is increasing once again across the country. In view of this, the Indian Medical Association (IMA) has written a letter to PM Modi to suggest that the vaccination program should be expedited and that people above 18 years of age should also be allowed to get vaccinated.
At this time, the Central Government has approved the installation of Corona Vaccine to all persons above the age of 45 and from April 1, people aged 45 years can visit their nearest center and get the Corona vaccine dosed online or offline.
All people above the age of 18 years should be approved for corona vaccination.
Free walk-in covid vaccination should be available to everyone at the nearest possible place of citizens.
Family clinics and private hospitals in the private sector should also be actively involved in vaccination drives. The availability of vaccination with all doctors and family physicians will have a positive impact on the vaccination drive.
Vaccine task force teams should be formed at the district level under the PPP model. Their task will be to get more and more people vaccinated, to monitor those who have got vaccinated, and to create trust among people about it. IMA wants to play an active role in this.
Vaccination certificate should be made compulsory for admission to public places and for making purchases under Public Distribution System (PDS).
In case of corona virus cases are increasing again, in order to break the chain of this infection, lockdown should be imposed for a limited time on non-essential activities like cinema, cultural and religious events and sports.
