He further informed that among the people who got vaccinated, 51 minor and one serious adverse events were reported. “Positivity has reduced to .44% from past few dates, and we can say that the third peak has ended comfortably in Delhi. Cases are also reducing but I would still like to request people to follow guidelines. Yesterday, 4,317 health care workers were inoculated. And the entire process was successful. In all states the inoculation percentage was 50% mainly because people did not turn up at the last moment. 51 minor and one serious adverse events were reported,” said Satyendar Jain during a press conference on January 17.
