Dr Zafrullah takes Covid-19 vaccine at BSMMU, calls upon PM, BNP leaders to get inoculated

After taking the first shot of Covid-19 vaccine at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Gonoshasthaya Kendra founder and trustee Dr Zafrullah Chowdhury today called upon all to get inoculated.

"It is their (people of the country) duty and responsibility." Dr Zafrullah said.

"I call upon the prime minister to take the vaccine, so that people of the country have confidence (in the vaccine). I think, the vaccination drive should be carried out more intensively," he added.

He requested BNP leaders and activists to get vaccinated, saying that they have to stay healthy, if they want to wage any movement.

Dr Zafrullah said measures should be taken so that general people like rickshaw-pullers can take vaccine.   

Appreciating the management at BSMMU, Dr Zafrullah expressed his gratitude to the hospital's staff.
