The need for clarity and no confusion applies to all issues in the outbreak.

It is ‘vex and the city’ when it comes to vaccines. This paper ran a report on a recent webinar called Curing Covid Confusion. In the report, we highlighted the importance of bringing clarity to the common man on several COVID-related aspects. Questions flying in during that interactive session with the chief of a COVID centre at the forefront of the outbreak battle were a window to just how befuddled the public is.

The need for clarity and no confusion applies to all issues in the outbreak. The current vaccine runaround is confounding. Vaccinations for the 18 to 45 age group have opened, but seniors, even those in the first age group of 60 plus, are struggling to get their second dose. We have worried and stressed seniors, many of them out of their depth in a digital world, experiencing one cancellation after another as the vaccine crunch bites.
