Kathmandu. Yam Sundas of Myagdi arrived at the vaccination center of Shukraraj Tropical and Communicable Diseases Hospital, Teku premises on Monday afternoon. He was seen in a hurry after reaching half a dozen vaccination centers in Kathmandu.
Why not He had to fly for foreign employment on Monday evening but was not vaccinated till 4 pm. "Going abroad without getting vaccinated is like catching yourself," says Sundas. "This is the condition of a person who has to fly this evening."
Young people seeking the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, which is administered with a single dose given by the US government, are not the only ones to suffer. On Monday, a dozen youths like him were found in a hospital in Teku seeking vaccinations for foreign employment. The pain of going to different countries and work was the same.
Along with Sundas of Myagdi, his friends Saroj Nepali and Santosh Chhantyal also took taxis to various vaccination centers in Kathmandu. They were preparing to leave for Ukraine, but they could not get vaccinated for two days.
Iman Singh Ghising of Makwanpur, who had already booked a ticket to Saudi Arabia, also looked very disappointed. Arriving at Teku at one o'clock in the afternoon, he was about to return after not getting vaccinated. He has been staying at a hotel in Kathmandu for two years.
Binod Tamang, a young man who met him, was also worried about going back to a foreign company without getting vaccinated. According to Binod, the company has sent a mail asking them to come only after getting vaccinated. "If we return from abroad, the agent has told us that we have to bear the risk," says Tamang. "If a person who has gone abroad with a loan has to return, he will go home."
He took a taxi from Balaju to Teaching Hospital, Veer, and reached Teku. But he was looking for another vaccination center as he was ready to give only long lines and certain groups everywhere.
The problem is the same for young people who try to get a second dose by taking the first dose. They have complained that they are sent back only to wear old clothes and when to wear cleaners. Some of the youths who arrived by 12 o'clock in the morning got vaccinated at the vaccination center of Teku Hospital.
But another problem has arisen as the vaccination proof card (vaccination card) is written in Nepali. "The manpower needs a vaccination card written in English," said Janak Sah of Siraha. "We have come here because the vaccination card written in Nepali is made in English by Teku Hospital."
Young people who had been vaccinated like Sah were confused whether to go to the hospital to make a card written in English or go to a notary public. They were standing with PCR reports, green passports, and vaccination cards in their hands.
The director of Tech Hospital, Dr. According to Anup Bastola, the vaccine will be distributed under the Immunization Division of the Ministry of Health and Population. However, he said that an initiative is being taken to make the vaccine card in English. "I've talked about making vaccine cards in English as well," said Bastola. The problem must be solved anyway.
