#COVID19 Vaccine Intelligence Network has been developed for planning, implementation, monitoring, & evaluation of #COVID vaccination in India.#CoWIN will enable us to drive world's largest #COVID19 immunization program. #StayInformedStaySafe
Quizzes have been a quintessential method of knowledge generation among the youth.
Today, at the finale of Red Ribbon Quiz Competition, appreciated @NACOINDIA for its initiative to spread awareness among young college students about AIDS & other diseases. @PMOIndia@MoHFW_INDIA
At the finale of Red Ribbons Quiz Competition, applauded @NACOINDIA for establishing thousands of Red Ribbon Clubs across India to reach out to our college-going youth to bring HIV prevention, care to the mainstream & reduce stigma around AIDS & HIV.
India's population is among the youngest in an ageing world.
The Govt led by Hon'ble PM Sh @narendramodi Ji has taken multiple initiatives to create an enabling environment for our youth to fulfil all their aspirations & propel India's rise as a global leader.
Addressing the inauguration ceremony of the academic program of 1st batch of MBBS of AIIMS, Guwahati, I exhorted the students starting their journey to strive to achieve excellence & enhance the prestige of AIIMS.
They only live, who live for others, the rest are more dead than alive.
Quoting #SwamiVivekananda Ji, I asked the students to respect & embrace the power of compassion, karma & God in order to become great doctors & serve society.
Cleanliness, sanitation & waste management are essential determinants of health.
It was a pleasure for me to preside over the event felicitating winners of Kayakalp Awardees for exemplary performance in maintaining hygiene & cleanliness in public health facilities.
Drawing inspiration from Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, @MoHFW_INDIA launched 'Kayakalp' in 2015 to felicitate Public Health Facilities promoting cleanliness, hygiene & infection control practices.
It was a pleasure to preside over the event felicitating Kayakalp Awardees of 2019-20.
Progress always needs to be quantified & verified.
Significant weightage is given to feedback by patients to assess score of participating healthcare facilities.
A remarkable 7615 facilities attained 70% score to qualify as Kayakalp facilities in 2019-20 up from <100 in 2015
PM श्री @narendramodi जी हमेशा पेशेवर तरीके से सबको साथ लेकर चलने में विश्वास करते हैं। देश में #कोरोना टीकाकरण से पहले आज मुख्यमंत्रियों के साथ संवाद कर उन्होंने जिस तरह सभी से टीकाकरण को सफ़ल बनाने का आग्रह किया, उससे साफ़ है कि उन्हें देश के हर नागरिक की चिंता है।
Wake up & realise you are only discrediting yourselves !
Vaccines approved globally based on gene encoding spike proteins have protective efficacy of over 90%
However, COVAXIN based on whole inactivated virus has other antigenic epitopes in addition to spike protein
So,it’s likely to have similar protective efficacy reported for others
COVAXIN is more likely to work against newer variants like N501Y Variant (UK variant) & any other that may arise due to antigenic drift as it contains immunogens (epitopes) from other genes in addition to those from Spike protein
Inactivated virus from NIV also had D614G mutation
