Tika Utsav: From April 11 to April 14 (TKB-Health)

The Teeka Utsav was started in the country on Sunday, waging a war against the global pandemic Corona virus. This Teeka Utsav will run till 14 April. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has appealed to the people that more and more people get vaccinated on this special occasion. However, even after the commencement of vaccination, many people are hesitant to take the vaccine due to a variety of fears. You can guess from this point how scared people must have been when the first vaccine arrived in the world.

Even before the arrival of the corona virus, there is a mention of several types of epidemics in the world. Lakhs and crores of people died due to various diseases including cholera, smallpox, plague, rabies, TB and polio. But due to lack of developed medical system, people could not get the right treatment. In such a situation, doctors used to treat themselves according to which people lost their lives.

With the advancement of medical science, scientists came to understand that vaccines can be very effective to avoid any diseases. It is believed that smallpox was the first such disease in the world to be diagnosed with a vaccine. The smallpox vaccine was discovered in 1976 by the British physician Edward Jenner. In today’s time, even though people consider smallpox as normal, there was a time when the disease was very serious. The fear of the disease ended in the seventies. Due to smallpox, nearly 500 million people worldwide lost their lives.

So join this Teeka Utsav and secure your life and families from the unknown attack of Corona Virus, but always stay safe with mask and safe distance and also always follow Covid Guidelines.
