Karnataka’s vaccination coverage to cross 3 crore soon: Sudhakar

BENGALURU:

All teaching and non-teaching staff of all government, aided and unaided schools will be vaccinated on priority as a safety measure, Health and Medical Education Minister Dr K Sudhakar said on Thursday.

Children cannot rely on online classes ‘forever’, and schools will have to reopened sooner or later, the Minister told mediapersons.

ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿ ಶ್ರೀ @BSYBJP ಅವರ ನೇತೃತ್ವದಲ್ಲಿ ಕಳೆದ ವರ್ಷವೂ ಯಶಸ್ವಿಯಾಗಿ SSLC ಪರೀಕ್ಷೆ ನಡೆಸಿದ್ದ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ, ಈ ವರ್ಷವೂ ಸುರಕ್ಷಿತವಾಗಿ ಸಂಪನ್ನಗೊಳಿಸಿದೆ. ಪರೀಕ್ಷೆಗೆ ಹಾಜರಾದ ಎಲ್ಲ ವಿದ್ಯಾರ್ಥಿಗಳಿಗೆ ಹಾಗೂ ಪೋಷಕರಿಗೆ ನನ್ನ ಶುಭ ಹಾರೈಕೆಗಳು.@CMofKarnataka @BSYBJP @DHFWKA @nimmasuresh

ರಾಜ್ಯದ ಎಲ್ಲ ಶಾಲೆಗಳ ಶಿಕ್ಷಕರು ಹಾಗೂ ಸಿಬ್ಬಂದಿಗಳಿಗೆ ಕ್ರಮಬದ್ಧವಾಗಿ ಮತ್ತು ಆದ್ಯತೆ ಮೇರೆಗೆ ಲಸಿಕೆ ನೀಡುವ ನಿಟ್ಟಿನಲ್ಲಿ ಮಾರ್ಗಸೂಚಿ ರೂಪಿಸಲಾಗಿದೆ. ಮಕ್ಕಳ ಭವಿಷ್ಯದ ದೃಷ್ಟಿಯಿಂದ ಈ ನಿರ್ಧಾರ ಕೈಗೊಳ್ಳಲಾಗಿದ್ದು, ಶಾಲೆಗಳ ಮುಖ್ಯಸ್ಥರು ತಮ್ಮ ಸಂಸ್ಥೆಯಲ್ಲಿ 100% ಲಸಿಕೆ ಪಡೆದಿರುವಂತೆ ಕ್ರಮ ಕೈಗೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕು ಎಂದು ವಿನಂತಿಸುತ್ತೇನೆ. pic.twitter.com/wF8Kdk6mDI

School staff will be accorded priority for vaccination, as most parents and kin of students have already been vaccinated, the Minister said. He claimed that the state’s vaccination coverage would cross 3 crore doses in a few days.

Around 5% of the total cases in the state are being subjected to genomic sequencing to look for new variants, and the information is shared with ICMR, Dr Sudhakar said.
