4 girls fall sick after getting immunization shots

Saturday, 31 August 2024 | Staff Reporter | BHOPAL

Four girls were hospitalised as they complained of uneasiness after being administered shots during an immunisation programme at a school in Bind district on Thursday.

The girls, all aged 16, were admitted to the Bhind district hospital when they started feeling uneasy and dizzy after they were administered shots for tetanus and diphtheria at a government high school in the Kyaripura area on Thursday, the district's chief medical and health officer Dr Shivram Singh Kushwaha told.

He said their condition is good now, and one of the girls will be discharged soon.

The immunisation programme has been underway since August 8.

At least 35 students were administered the vaccines the previous days, the official said. The four girls were first rushed to a primary health centre and later shifted to the district hospital, he said, adding that the girls had not eaten anything before taking the shots.
