The officials of Thalainayar town panchayat have devised unique methods to create awareness of COVID-19 vaccine in their areas. Thanks to these efforts, 80% of the population have been inoculated with at least one dose of the vaccine.
The workers themselves made large models of syringes, vaccine vials and dressed up in bright costumes to attract the public. A cultural programme with music and dance, street plays and other activities were conducted to create awareness on the importance of taking the jab. “There were some common misconceptions about the side-effects of getting the vaccination and these programmes were successful in eliminating. The public is now actively taking part in the vaccination camps,” K. Kuhan, Executive Officer told The Hindu.
