Covid-19 vaccine is not the central theme in scientific and public health discussion at the moment, said the central government on Thursday.
Instead, the administration of the two doses remains the main priority. "We need to remember one thing very clearly that booster dose is not the central theme at the moment in the scientific discussion as well as in the public health domain.
Getting the two doses remains the major priority," said ICMR director general Balram Bhargava. "Several agencies have recommended that antibody levels should not be measured.
But the important understanding is that full vaccination of both doses is absolutely essential and there should be no breakage in that," he added.
