Jammu, Dec 30: Aam Aadmi Party’s JK chapter on Friday expressed concern over alleged acute shortage of booster doses against corona virus in Jammu and Kashmir and castigated administration for non serious approach towards prevailing threat of COVID19 fourth wave putting life of people in risk.
          Ina s statement issued to Rising Kashmir, Aam Aadmi Party's Kashmir province Vice President Nazir Ahmed Yatoo said that serious approach is urgent need of hour to remain prepared for prevailing threat of fourth wave of Corona virus which has already shown its large scale disastrous affect in countries like China.
"Recently we have seen that Government of India is on a serious concern note towards COVID19 threat and even the Prime Minister office made appeals for prevention but the level of this seriousness is not penetrated down the line in Jammu and Kashmir." said Yatoo.
He added, "Jammu and Kashmir Government is clearly insensitive towards prevention of COVID19 wave and this can be gauged from the emergent situation that booster doses have dried up across Jammu and Kashmir and there is no effort from Government to refill the stock of doses."
          Yatoo said that vaccination plays an important role in prevention against COVID19 but unavailability of vaccine booster doses is a serious issue which not only shows the non-serious approach of J&K Govt but shows how the Government is insensitive towards the life of citizens.
          AAP's Kashmir Province Vice President, Nazir Ahmed Yatoo asked JK LG administration to intervene in the matter and to ensure that booster doses remain available in adequate stock so that vaccination process remains continue in full pace.
          He said that Jammu and Kashmir has already witnessed large scale losses of previous human lives in earlier waves of COVID19 pandemic and there is need to remain extra cautious but Government's preparations are unsatisfactory.
          "Vaccination is a basic tool to remain fully prepared to tackle the pandemic wave but unavailability of booster doses is a serious concern that needs to be dealt with a serious approach," he further said.
          The AAP leader further mentioned about the poor healthcare sector of Jammu and Kashmir stating that the number of healthcare institutions are quite less than required and these too have poor arrangements and thus people strive hard to get vaccinated and now unavailability of booster doses is another serious concern.
          He advised the Government to hold a realistic review of preparations on preventive mode and to ensure adequate availability of booster doses in all designated Government hospitals of JK.
