Paediatric task force to tackle third wave

Himachal Pradesh Polity and Governance

A paediatric task force will be constituted as medical experts are anticipating that the third wave may hit India in another three or four months.
A high-level meeting was held to discuss it. The task force would study the overall scenario and give recommendations to the government. It would also study the availability of infrastructure and draw up plans for the augmentation of machinery, equipment and human resources in the state.
The vaccination programme was under way for 18 years and above by 3-4 months. The segment would be largely vaccinated which might leave the children vulnerable to the third wave.
