The new variant of the corona virus, Omicron, has become a cause of trouble among everyone these days. This vaccinet is infecting people. Now there is a debate among all of them on the third booster dose to increase the immunity of the people.

Yes, recently the Health Agency has said that, 'Both doses of the Oxford/AstraZeneca and Pfizer/BioEndtech vaccines being used in India under the name of Covishield have less protection against Omicron than the delta variant of Covid-19. provide. However, the third booster dose of the vaccine boosts immunity against the new variant.

According to the information received, this claim is based on the analysis of data of 581 micron infected cases. Let us tell you that the UKHSA says that, 'It is estimated that if there is no change in the current situation, then the cases of infection in Britain will cross one million by the end of this month.

Experts said that the vaccine may still be a better defense against the severity of Covid-19, which is needed for treatment in hospitals.
