As COVID-19 infections are on the rise once again, Serum Institute of India CEO Adar Poonawala has urged elderly people to take a booster dose as the virus could prove fatal for them. Poonawala suggested that elderly people wear masks on regular basis and take a shot of Covovax booster to prevent contraction of the virus. "As COVID cases have been rising again with Omicron XBB & its variants, it can be severe for the elderly. I’d suggest for the elderly, mask up & take the Covovax booster which is now available on the COWIN app. It is excellent against all variants & is approved in the US & Europe," SII CEO tweeted.
