]]>India is still not out of the woods when it comes to the second wave of COVID-19 and people should celebrate festivals like Diwali, Eid and Ganesh Chaturthi at home without gathering in large numbers, the Health Ministry said on Thursday.
“Festivals are like Ganesh Chaturthi, Diwali and Eid coming. This year too, like the last year, they will need to be celebrated in a restrictive manner, and it is our appeal to all to stay at home,” Dr VK Paul, member of the government’s think tank NITI Aayog and chief of the COVID-19 task force on COVID-19 said.
“Like last year, festivals need to be celebrated in a subdued manner. Wearing masks is an absolute must while in any public place,” he added, speaking at the Health Ministry’s news briefing on the coronavirus pandemic.
Dr Balram Bhargava, Director-General at the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), said, “We are still in the second wave of COVID-19 and hence appeal to all in the country to continue with all Covid restrictions in your area. Follow COVID-19 SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) and maintain Covid-appropriate behaviour.”
India reported the biggest single-day rise in COVID-19 cases in two months on Thursday, amid concerns about the virus spreading from the most-affected Kerala, schools reopening, and the start of the festival season.

In the next few months, the RBD protein vaccine subunit will likely be accessible. From preclinical through phase three trials, the vaccine candidate was financed by the government.

]]>The National Education Policy announced in July 2020 has been facing strict opposition by the recently formed DMK government. The proposed three language formula does not seem to work for them. Even the previous AIADMK government had made it clear that they would stick to the two language formula.
“The implementation of three language systems would pave the way for imposition of Hindi and Sanskrit. Through the policy, the centre insists that there should be two Indian languages, Tamil will naturally be the first language here. Centre is talking as if English foes not exist. Ours is a multi-cultural and multi-linguistic society and we can’t accept the imposition of Hindi and Sanskrit.”The School Education Minister of Tamil Nadu, Anbil Mahesh Poyyamazohi.

]]>The health of Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij has worsened due to Corona getting infected. He has been sent from PGI Rohtak to Medanta Hospital in Gurugram. Earlier, he was referred to PGI Rohtak from Ambala Hospital. Anil Vij has an infection in his lungs. Let me tell you that on November 20, Anil Vij had done the first dose of Corona’s vaccine ‘Kovaxin’. On December 5, he tweeted that he had become corona positive even after taking the vaccine. After this, the Health Ministry had to be clarified in this matter. Anil Vij was given a dose of ‘Kovaxin’ being developed by Bharat Biotech and ICMR. Later Anil Vij himself said that the doctors had already told him that the corona vaccine starts working about 14 days after taking the second dose. The second dose of the vaccine is applied 28 days after the first dose. After 14 days, antibodies develop in the body. Only then can you get protection from the corona. That is, this whole process takes 42 to 45 days. There is no protection from the vaccine in the middle. Vij was admitted in PGI Rohtak This is the reason why Anil Vij became Corona positive on 5 December after taking the Corona vaccine on 20 November. Anil Vij said that even after taking the vaccine, he was taking precaution, despite this he was hit by the corona. Before being sent to Medanta, Haryana Home and Health Minister Anil Vij was admitted to PGI Rohtak. He was shifted to PGI Rohtak on 12 December. Vij offered to become the first volunteer in the clinical trial phase 2 for the indigenous potential vaccine ‘Kovaxin’ against COVID-19 being developed by Bharat Biotech in collaboration with the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR). JJP leaders met on 4 December On 4 December, the Jannayak Janata Party demanded Haryana Home Minister Anil Vij for immediate cancellation of the cases filed during the agitation against farmers. A three-member delegation of senior JJP leaders met him at the Secretariat Office of the Home Minister in Chandigarh. After the meeting, Home Minister Anil Vij had said that the leaders of JJP, a partner party in the coalition government, have demanded to withdraw the cases lodged against the farmers during the agitation and they will discuss the matter with the Chief Minister.
