Nagpur : , May 16 (IANS) Concerned by the sheer resistance among tribals for the Covid-19 vaccine jabs, a group of NGOs and leading personalities in Maharashtra have launched an awareness drive among the forest folks for the life-saver jabs. In several districts of Vidarbha region, with a significant tribal populace, there are misgivings and misconceptions about the ongoing vaccination programme in the state, said Vasantrao Naik Sheti Swavalamban Mission (VNSSM) President Kishore Tiwari, accorded a MoS status. Like in other regions, the tribal people harbour wild ideas, they feel that vaccinations could lead to side-effects, short or long term handicaps or even death, and they are keeping out of the programme. In many areas, they chase away the medical or health workers going to enroll them for the drive, Tiwari told IANS.
