Ashanti Regional Deputy Director of Clinical Care, Dr Rita Larsen Reindolf has said that it’s useless for one to get drunk before taking the covid-19 vaccine.
According to Dr Rita, one does not need to even a soft drink before taking a covid-19 jab.
“The vaccine is resistant to nothing. But before you take your jab, make sure you have eaten…the vaccine is also not resistant to alcohol or any food, however one does not need to even drink before going for the injection because it is painless”,
She disclosed that over Seventy-five thousand four hundred and twelve people have so far been vaccinated in the Ashanti Region alone hoping those who have not yet received their jabs will also avail themselves to be vaccinated
“Everything is running smooth. We hope to capture more people when the system becomes normal”, she said in an interview.
Dr Rita Larsen-Reindolf went on and rubbished rumours and myths that the vaccine has been imported into the country to control birth among others among people in the sub-region.
“I have taken my jab and nothing bad is happening to me. Let’s stop the wait and see attitude. It’s safe. Taking the vaccine will make one immune system stronger to fight coronavirus”, she affirmed.
