Amid a raging debate on whether the Covid infected should get vaccinated, the government on Friday said India’s National Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (NTAGI) could review its decision if new evidence emerges. Experts from the Indian Public Health Association, Indian Association of Preventive and Social Medicine and Indian Association of Epidemiologists have mentioned in a report to PM Narendra Modi that there is no need to vaccinate those with documented Covid-19 infection. NITI Aayog Member VK Paul today noted, “Respected institutions have submitted their views and we will consider these and also engage the experts one on one. Whether the Covid infected should or should not take a vaccine would be decided through the institutional mechanism which is in place for the purpose. The NTAGI meets regularly to study emerging evidence and to decide on policy.”
