VADODARA: Two accredited social health activists (ASHA) workers complained of dizziness after they were administered Covid-19 vaccines in Chhota Udepur on Saturday.
Neela Rathwa, 42, complained of dizziness within 20 minutes of taking vaccine at Suskal health centre at 1.10 pm in Pavi Jetpur taluka. Similarly, 35-year-old Radha Bariya complained of stomach ache and dizziness three hours after she was administered the vaccine at health centre in Suryaghoda village in Bodeli taluka. She was brought to the health centre at 6pm after she complained.
Health department officials said that both ASHA workers were administered glucose and discharged immediately as their health recovered. “It is too early to say that they felt dizzy because of the vaccine. It could also be because of anxiety due to the vaccine drive,” said a health department official.
