Centenarian Sher Mohammad feels more "confident and protected" after taking the COVID-19 vaccine. A resident of Reasi in Jammu and Kashmir, the 118-year-old, on Friday, appealed to people to get vaccinated and protect themselves from the deadly virus. Sher Mohammad took the shot yesterday during a vaccination drive organised by the administration. "After getting the COVID-19 jab, I feel more confident and protected as the vaccine is the biggest shield against the deadly disease," Sher Mohammad was quoted by news agency Press Trust Trust of India as saying. He added that people should not bother about rumours on how effective the COVID-19 vaccine is and should take the shot at the earliest. "If I, at this age, can take the shot, I feel others shouldn't shy away from getting vaccinated," Sher Mohammad said.
