Do not panic for our vaccines are much stronger: Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma

Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Wednesday asked the people not to panic following the reports of rising number of Covid cases in China.

He said, “Our vaccines are much better, but China's vaccines are much weaker, which has led to an outbreak in that country.”

He added, “we are sure that the central government will definitely keep a strict watch on the situation,” Sarma said.


Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya chaired a Covid review meeting with experts and senior officials. "Covid is not over yet. I have directed all concerned to be alert and strengthen surveillance. We are prepared to manage any situation,” he said.
