COVID-19: MP CM’s appeal

Bhopal, June 20 (UNI) Underlining the fact that inoculation is the most effective weapon against the ‘millennium scourge’, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan reiterated that an immunisation campaign is commencing from 1000 hrs on Monday.
In a message to the populace, the veteran leader averred, “Our objective is to vaccinate in excess of ten lakh people on the inaugural day itself at a whopping 7,000 centres set up for the process. In this month, more than 50 lakh citizens will be administered the injections. I appeal to all sections – including intellectuals, public representatives, social workers and religious leaders – to motivate the masses. The second wave is almost over. The state’s positivity has dropped to 0.15 per cent and recovery rate attained 99 per cent. I heartily congratulate Premier Narendra Modi for assuming direct command of the vaccination.”
