Bengaluru, Jul 30: The number of people opting for third dose of Coronavirus vaccination in the state has increased considerably after the union government made it free for people in the age group of 18 to 59 years.

In the last 15 days 15.8 lac people have received the precautionary or booster dose. The third dose began to be administered from April 10. At that time it was announced that it is free only for frontline warriors and senior citizens. A fee of Rs 225 was fixed for people in the age group of 18 to 59 years. But most of the people did not take it as it was not available in government hospitals and also not free.

From April 10 to July 15 only 3.9 lac people in Karnataka took the third dose. Only after the union government made the dose free the average jumped to one lac people per day.

At present, the third dose of vaccination against Covid is administered in more than 3000 health centres around Karnataka. Those who have completed two months after taking a second dose can get the same. This free dose will be available till September 30.

The union government has reduced the gap of third dose from nine months to six months. Accordingly, the number of those who are yet to get a third dose has increased to 3.8 crore in Karnataka. So far only 19.7 lac people have received the third dose.

    Globalist liberal elite and communist chinese plan to reduce population ? First Covid shot reduces your immune system by 30%? The second and third shots can reduce your immune system by up to 80% ? Divine warning to John Leary dated Monday, February 7, 2022: (Message mainly to american but also for rest of the faithful and the world ) ... Jesus said: “My people, you are aware of how your people were being forced to get Covid shots and boosters, or they would lose their jobs. Some people have quit their jobs, or they retired early to avoid being forced to take the poisonous Covid shots. Doctors are admitting that each shot contains graphene oxide that will reduce your immune system. The first shot reduces your immune system by 30%. The second and third shots can reduce your immune system by up to 80%. When such a person is faced with the flu, many will die, especially those who have compromised health to begin with. The plan of the one world people is to use viruses and shots to purposely reduce the population. People were asking if the shots are so bad, then why are we not seeing more deaths? There are more deaths, only the media is covering up this information from the harm the shots are causing. The fact is that more people are dying between the ages of 18 and 64, when this should be the healthier part of your people. One life insurance company has reported a 40% increase in deaths over the last few quarters for this age group of 18 to 64. Some may ask what is the reason for so many deaths among the young people? You are finally seeing an increase in deaths because of the poisonous Covid shots which I have been warning people not to take. I told you that the more shots you take, the worse it would affect your health...

    Nobody Approved India's Precautionary Dose ?? Following reply highlights as per RTI request by The Wire Science ... •Neither the CDSCO nor the national advisory group on immunisation was taken into confidence before Prime Minister Modi announced the rollout of booster doses. •In reply to a series of RTI applications by The Wire Science, the PMO and the health ministry refused to divulge details of the government’s decision-making. •One reply indicated that the government had misled the Supreme Court about the availability of the minutes of an NTAGI meeting in December 2021 deliberating ‘precautionary’ doses. •It also appears that the DCGI approved homologous boosting in the absence of data and allegedly because it was the legally safer choice https://science.thewire.in/health/cdsco-approval-precautionary-doses-investigation/?s=09 Ref: https://t.me/awakenindiamovement

    great initiative by the govt in running such a campaign and making it freely available. Saving lives is more important than giving freebies like tv, free electricity and emptying nations coffers

    Free for all, but who is paying and from which account to the manufacturer? Or is it the manufacturer who is supplying it free to the authorities? Please do your own research and know the facts!!!
