Secretary of Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Rajesh Bhushan on Tuesday, said, “One cannot deny chances of an adverse event when COVID-19 vaccination begins in India.”
“Adverse events following immunization is a critical issue. When we undertake a universal immunization program, which has been done for decades, then some adverse effects are seen in children and pregnant women after vaccination. So, we can’t deny chances of an adverse event when COVID-19 vaccination begins,” He said.
