“I hope more people have the courage to get injections.”
The Dalai Lama, a spiritual leader in Tibet, has encouraged vaccination against the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19). The Dalai Lama was vaccinated with a vaccine developed by British pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca and manufactured by Serum Institute in India in Dharamsala, India on the 6th (local time).
Dr. GD Gupta, the manager of a local hospital where the Dalai Lama was vaccinated against Corona 19, added, “Dalai Lama arrived at the hospital like any other person and was vaccinated.” . The Dalai Lama stayed at the hospital for about 30 minutes after vaccination and was observed for side effects, but it is reported that no specific symptoms have been observed.
The Dalai Lama urged active participation, saying, “Everyone should be vaccinated,” through a video message released after vaccination. In a video message, the Dalai Lama said in a video message, “This injection is very useful to prevent serious (disease) situations,” and “I hope more people will have the courage to get the vaccine.”
After the Corona 19 pandemic, the Dalai Lama has been in self-isolation since January of last year and went out for vaccination for the first time in a year, New Indian Express reported on the day. The reason for the Dalai Lama’s self-isolation is that he is old (86 years old) and the situation of Corona 19 in India is serious. The Tibetan Government of Exile (CTA) requested the central and local governments of India to prepare vaccinations for the Dalai Lama two months ago. It was known to be.
