Hyderabad, March 1: Governor Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan has called for no vaccine-hesitancy among the people. She urged all the eligible people to register and take the vaccine to prevent Covid-19.

Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan stated that all the eligible people like those above 60 years and those above 45 years with co-morbidity conditions must be motivated to register on the COWIN 2.0 and take the vaccine.

She has also directed the Raj Bhavan officials to guide and motivate all those identified people among the Raj Bhavan pariwar to get vaccinated at the earliest.

“Raj Bhavan should be a role model to others by getting all the eligible people vaccinated,” she directed.

The Governor also appealed to all the people to strictly adhere to the Covid-19 preventive norms so as to prevent the spread of the pandemic, as the vaccination process is still in progress.

Responding to a request from a Home Guard, who is working in Raj Bhavan and sought the help for his daughter’s surgery, the Governor directed the officials to coordinate with the senior paediatrician surgeons at the Niloufer Hospital to facilitate the surgery.
