In Tamil Nadu, vaccination of lactating women has been started. The baby is vaccinated from the third day of life. It has been reported that the third wave of corona can affect babies.
Therefore, research has been done on vaccination of children and those under 18 years of age, pregnant and lactating women. Following the approval of vaccinating lactating women, vaccination has been started in Tamil Nadu. At the Chennai Egmore Government Maternity Hospital, 12 lactating women were vaccinated in two days.
Similarly, other hospitals are also vaccinating lactating women. Regarding this, Vijaya, Director, Egmore Government Maternity Hospital, said: The baby is vaccinated within three or four days of birth. So far we have vaccinated 12 people. No one has any side effects. After testing for body temperature, blood pressure, blood sugar, etc., the vaccine is given.
But many do not come forward to be vaccinated out of fear. They are counseled and vaccinated. Pregnant women will be vaccinated if they get the vaccine, he said.
