A Super-Spreader Wedding

27 Feb: Wedding of a distant cousin brother. Due to regulations of 100 people, my parents weren't there. (Thankfully).

Some of the invitees from the groom's side as Baaraatis (wedding procession), went together in a luxury bus.

And so it began.
The wedding concluded. No hiccups. All fun and frolic.

A week later: One of the guests, a 65 yr old male, tested positive.

He was part of that Baaraati bus.

Admitted to hospital with severe symptoms.
Over the next few days, everyday, 1 more guest from the wedding popped up with a positive test.

Even the groom's parents ended up positive.

Some got admitted in hospitals, some got home isolation.

Don't know about the situation with the bride's family and relatives.

➡️ AIM of Vaccines
➡️ How Vaccines Work
➡️ Side-Effects / AEFI

1/n
➡️ AIM of Vaccines

> Prevent COVID-19 in susceptible individuals.
> Prevent severe COVID-19 infection, thereby reducing the need for hospital admission, ventilation, ICU admission, and death.
> Herd immunity by vaccination.

2/n
➡️ How Vaccines Work

> COVID-19 Vaccines have 2 doses, 4 weeks apart. Both doses are necessary for protection from COVID.

> Single dose of vaccine does not impart complete protection against COVID. One can still get infected after 1st dose ---> Why?

I did not want to get into the #Bhopal #COVAXIN controversy. I was holding back.

But after seeing the response from some "health reporters", I had to come out and say it:

DON'T TURN YOUR JOURNALISM INTO ACTIVISM.
There's a fine line between demanding accountability from the Govt / Bharat Biotech and eroding the trust of the people in the vaccine.

To all those journos: You are crossing that line.
Yes. Go ahead and ask questions about why the approval was given. Ask why IC was not taken in Bhopal. Ask why the poor 45 yr old man died.

But do it with sensitivity.
