While undergoing major treatment, three elderly women who went for the COVID-19 vaccine were mistakenly given a rabies anti-injection in Shamli, Uttar Pradesh. The incident took place at Kandhala Community Health Center in Shamli. The condition of the employed elderly woman became serious after the issue of medical negligence was revealed by the health center and the relatives complained to the chief medical officer for taking action.
Three women, Saroj (70), Anarkali (722) and Satyavati, aged 70, arrived at the community health center on Thursday to get their first COVID job. As soon as they reached the center, the health workers asked them to get a syringe for every Rs 100 from outside and later they were accused of giving them rabies anti-injection, the report said. Three elderly women, described as uneducated, returned home after receiving shots.
