The State’s Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) has recommended that senior citizens who have been fully vaccinated abroad and are keen on taking a precautionary/ booster or third dose vaccination here in Karnataka should be administered Covishield vaccine.
“Many senior citizens, who would have gone to visit their children in other countries, would have been jabbed with Moderna (two doses) or Pfizer (two doses) or Johnson and Johnson (single dose) in the USA, the UK or any other countries. Many such people are seeking advice for booster/ precautionary dose vaccination in Bengaluru/ Karnataka,” TAC sources said.
