    Thank you Javdekarji, first vaccinate all the members of your family & then all the party cadres first as we are in no hurry to get any of the above as they are not proven to either prevent or to be able to give any immunity against mutated viruses. Many countries are sending back our vaccines for the same reason. One more point please let us know if Bovine Serum is in them, if so are you okay if it hurts the sentiments of some groups too apart from inhuman way they are collected from living cows which have to sacrifice their life for our selfishness. I wonder if Maneka Gandhi is aware of it too?
