Lalitpur: A case of shocking negligence has been reported from Uttar Pradesh's Lalitpur where a man was given both doses of the Covid-19 vaccine within five minutes.

This incident took place at a vaccination center in Ravarpura locality. A person who went there to get vaccinated on Wednesday has alleged that the nursing staff was so busy talking among themselves that they administered both the doses of vaccine to him within five minutes.

The person who has levelled this allegation says that he did not know that there needs to be a gap of a few days between the two doses.

When he reached home after getting vaccinated, he felt uneasy and restless so he narrated the incident to his family members. After this, he approached the CMO and complained about the same. He was then sent to an emergency ward.
