KARACHI: The extent to which Pakistanis are reluctant to get Covid-19 jabs can be gauged from Sindh Health Minister Dr Azra Fazal Pechuho’s recent admonition to none other than the provincial health workers, many of whom aren’t getting themselves vaccinated, with some citing conspiracy theories about the vaccine that are often shared via WhatsApp groups.
Dr Pechuho said in a video released on March 25 that 142,315 healthcare workers were registered in the province for inoculation, but 33,356 of them did not get themselves vaccinated. She warned the healthcare workers who were not getting vaccinated of job termination.
