Doctors urged the beginning of the fourth dose.

Some physicians have asked to begin the fourth dose. At the very least for high-risk individuals like healthcare professionals, the elderly, and people with concomitant conditions. Indian Medical Association representatives requested extra doses from Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya. For frontline and healthcare professionals, the third dose was administered around a year ago.

The former president of the group, Dr. JA Jayalal, went to the conference. Dr. JA Jayalal states, “We have asked the government to consider a fourth precautionary dose for everyone. Particularly doctors, nurses, other hospital staff members, and frontline workers who have to manage patients who are at high risk.

Government focuses entirely on administering a booster dose

According to the data available thus far, the federal government is concentrating on expanding the coverage of the third dose. Which is given to 27–28% of the eligible population. Under the condition of anonymity, a central government official stated. “Although technical discussions are ongoing, the central government is not currently considering extra booster doses. Making sure people who have not started using preventive or third-party supplements should be the main concern.
