Emphasizing the significance of 'Tika Utsav', a vaccination drive between April 11 and 14, marking the beginning of another major war on Covid-19, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday made several suggestions to people on tackling the virus and urged them to focus on personal and social hygiene
In a statement, Prime Minister urged people to keep four things in mind, including "each one, vaccinate one", "each one, treat one" and "each one, save one".
PM said, elderly people or those who may not be much educated should be helped in getting the vaccine and also asked people to help those Covid-19 patients in getting treatment who may lack resources or information. By wearing masks, people can save themselves and others, He said
PM also asked families and members of the society to take lead in setting up micro containment zones in case of anyone getting the infectious disease, saying this is an important way to fight the disease in a densely populated country like India.
"Our success will be decided by how much aware we are about micro containment zones. Our success will be decided by us not stepping outside homes when not needed. Our success will be decided by that those eligible for the vaccine get it. Our success will be decided by as to how much we adhere to wearing masks and following other protocols," he said.
"Anyone eligible for the vaccine should get the jab, and for this, the society and administration have to make full efforts," he added.
