Covid Booster Dose Campaign at Tamenglong
44 Assam Rifles under the aegis of 22 Sect AR/IGAR (East) kick-started the administration of precautionary dose. Today a total of 36 eligible individuals were vaccinated in the first phase. Within a short span of time, Omicron cases in India have rapidly surged. While the new variant is said to be mild so far, the high rate of transmissibility has become a source of concern.
The GoI has rolled out third precautionary dose (booster) of COVID-19 vaccine for those above 60 facing co-morbidities and with highly compromised immune system. Apart from this, healthcare and frontline workers are prioritized for the booster shots, since they are more prone to be in contact with patients suffering with COVID-19 or the new omicron variants.
Tamenglong battalion has also undertaken initiatives at the grassroot level and have roped in various community leaders to spread public awareness about the benefits of following CAB and vaccine. Proper education and awareness are the keys to achieving safer society.
