With the beginning of the government’s AstraZeneca vaccination campaign from Monday, the senior citizens’ long wait to get the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine has finally come to an end.
However, as those who got the first dose of the Covishield vaccine in March had to wait for over five months to receive the second jab, many are questioning the efficacy of the AstraZeneca vaccine. Likewise, as the government is now distributing AstraZeneca as the second dose of Covishield many have a misconception that the vaccines are different from each other.
