New Delhi, December 5: Health Minister of Haryana, Anil Vij on Saturday tested positive for COVID-19. He is currently admitted in Civil Hospital Ambala Cantt, Ambala. The Health Minister used twitter to ask all the people that he have been in contact with to also get themselves tested for the disease.
Vij wrote, "I have been tested Corona positive. I am admitted in Civil Hospital Ambala Cantt. All those who have come in close contact to me are advised to get themselves tested for corona."
It needs to be noted that, the 67-year-old BJP leader was administered with a dose of Bharat Biotech COVID-19 vaccine candidate, Covaxin. Vij volunteered as the first person in Haryana to take the dose of the vaccine when its third phase trial began in the state on November 20. He was given the vaccine shot at the Civil Hospital, Ambala Cantt itself, under the expert supervision of doctors from PGI Rohtak and state's health department.
Bharat Biotech has claimed that its COVID-19 vaccine trial in phase 1 and 2 have been largely successful and shown positive results. However, Anil Vij contacting COVID-19 despite getting the vaccine shot is likely to raise some serious question on the credibility of the claims. The vaccine is currently in its third phase of human trials and will be administered to 28,500 volunteers all over the country.
