With the start of the day usually in Govt health sector OPD protocols for ILI and ARI even Common flu's has given a tough fight to distinguish and label it as Corona. Usually testifying the patient in separate Flu OPD's is a great value triage for possible watch out on the present spread. Be In Govt or in day off Privatization. A medic is well versed to treat patients with utmost care.  Pandemic has given a clear message to epidemiologists and to Public Health about it's way of appearance, change in it's spread, Time of spread, Climatic re-spread, mutation, morality, and existence of new research has pushed it's discovery for a New Vaccine.The Vaccination to control it's roots on right time is the only way out. 

RT-PCR testing or RAT is mandatory in active phase of infection. The Vaccination is basically promoted in a suppression period but the Covid19 has left no way to drove population's towards mortality.  Before taking Jabs a Sensitive or a Specific test must be done simultaneously. If RAT is negative go for RT PCR. If you feel all ok get the jab.  If positivity comes in person during testing. He should refrain from taking Jab. Once he is all ok after isolation and treatment which takes weeks to withstand again in recovery and fight against infection then a person is free to take the jab. But all precautions, masking  & social distancing should be on accountability as a fashion in letter & spirt ! 

#Lancet says :  Simple mathematics helps. If we  vaccinated a population of 100 000  and protected 95% of them, that would  leave 5000 individuals diseased over  3 months, Rather, a 95% vaccine efficacy means that instead of 1000 COVID-19 cases in a population of 100 000 Without Vaccine (from the placebo arm of the above mentioned trials, approximately 1% would be ill with COVID-19 and 99% would not) we would expect 50 cases (99·95% of the population is disease-free, atleast for 3 months)  So this is only to save from Third Wave.
