Health workers at Delhi hospital suffer mild reaction post vaccination

New Delhi, Jan 16 : A healthcare staff at the Rajiv Gandhi Super Speciality Hospital in the national capital, Anivesh Kumar, suffered a mild reaction right after taking the jab of Covid vaccine on Saturday.
Vinesh Kumar, a nursing officer at the hospital, experienced suffocation followed by weakness in the body post the inoculation. His injection site also started to pain.
Five minutes after the vaccine was administered to him while he was in the observation room, he felt breathlessness and weakness in the limbs. “My arm (where the vaccine jab was given) also started to pain.” However, he recovered within 15 to 20 minutes and came outside the observation room.
“No medicine was given to me since I was back on my feet shortly. Right now, I’m only feeling a bit of weakness and pain in the arm,” he said.
“I was told these are mild reactions which generally occur after getting vaccinated,” he added.
