After health authorities stopped administering first dose of COVID-19 vaccines due to shortage of vials, opposition NPF has questioned how far the state government was preparing to tackle the second wave “when the vaccine has run out of stock”?
NPF through its press bureau stated that the state government should be prepared with the vaccine for its eligible citizens. “But instead, it appears that the vaccine has run out of stock,” NPF said.
Even as the Centre announced vaccination for citizens above the age of 18 years starting May 1, NPF said citizens in Nagaland were, however, disappointed on learning that the vaccine was out of stock, and the remaining ones vaccine were only got for the second phase.
In this regard, NPF asked the government what alternative have been made for those who were denied their dose due to the shortage. NPF urged the government to be serious enough in the health sector particularly dealing the present pandemic and to do justice for its citizens with outmost care and sincerity and immediately make the vaccine available.
Further, NPF appealed to the government to sensitize the people about the importance of vaccine so no eligible persons were left out.
