Mayor had been ‘mixing’
The Mayor had participated in several programmes and also chaired a meeting at the Mysuru City Corporation recently.
Speaking to TheBengaluruLive, Dr Amarnath said no one has said that a person will not get Covid-19 after vaccination, since it requires a minimum of 45 days to get an immunity boost. “Both the Mayor and her husband have been infected with Covid-19 and are currently under home isolation. Their health condition is stable,” he said.
