Karnataka Mission Director asks health staff to take a ‘vaccine break’ on Sundays
BENGALURU:
Following a directive by Dr K Sudhakar, Minister of Health, Family Welfare and Medical Education, the Karnataka government has decided to give a break to the Covid-19 vaccination staff on Sundays.
The statewide vaccination drive has been in force since January 16, 2021. “Most of the early health staff beneficiaries of the vaccine programme are working diligently at the district and taluk level. All health care workers are asked to use the Covid-19 vaccine break as often as possible on Sundays, one day a week,” Arundhati Chandrashekar, Mission Director (Karnataka), National Health Mission, said in a circular on Wednesday.
