Dear @BSYBJP<\/a>@CMofKarnataka<\/a>@drashwathcn<\/a> Recd this video on WA of what appears to be a video of faking the corona vaccination by Tumkur DMO and their team. How will you instil confidence in general public about the vaccine? @narendramodi<\/a>@drharshvardhan<\/a>@RMCpost<\/a>pic.twitter.com\/xIrAZacsvd<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Incredible Indian (@thetaxaholic) January 21, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The video has been shared with Kannada caption \u2013 \u201cTumkur district medical officer and government nursing college principal acted as if they took Covaxin\u201d \u2013 on Facebook page Sadananda Nithyananda. It drew over 40,000 shares as of this writing.<\/p>\n The same has been shared on Facebook by the national president of Youth Congress Srinivas B V and Twitter users @Faizal_Peraje<\/a>, @KaushikKumarMi3<\/a>, @snapnchat<\/a> and @rajakumaari<\/a>.<\/p>\n Vaccination Drive ? pic.twitter.com\/o69nU1Ns88<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Srinivas B V (@srinivasiyc) January 21, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Several media outlets \u2013 Oneindia Kannada, Vishwavani<\/a>, Dajiworld<\/a>, Latestly<\/a> \u2013 also carried similar reports claiming that Dr Nagendrappa and Dr Rajani did not take COVID-19 vaccine and only posed for the cameras.<\/p>\n \u0cb5\u0ccd\u0caf\u0cbe\u0c95\u0ccd\u0cb8\u0cbf\u0ca8\u0ccd \u0ca4\u0cc6\u0c97\u0cc6\u0ca6\u0cc1\u0c95\u0cca\u0cb3\u0ccd\u0cb3\u0ca6\u0cc6 \u0ca8\u0cbe\u0c9f\u0c95\u0cb5\u0cbe\u0ca1\u0cbf\u0ca6 \u0ca4\u0cc1\u0cae\u0c95\u0cc2\u0cb0\u0cc1 \u0ca1\u0cbf\u0c8e\u0c9a\u0ccd\u0c92: \u0c85\u0cae\u0cbe\u0ca8\u0ca4\u0ccd\u0ca4\u0cbf\u0c97\u0cc6 \u0c92\u0ca4\u0ccd\u0ca4\u0cbe\u0caf Video credit: Twitter Posted by Oneindia Kannada<\/a> on Wednesday, 20 January 2021<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n Alt News contacted Dr Rajani who denied online claims. \u201cI have seen the video circulating on social media and it is quite unfortunate that a false impression against the vaccine is being promoted among people. I did take the first dose of the vaccine and later posed for media personnel who wanted to take a picture. I will be taking the second shot after 28 days,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n Dr Rajani shared government documents to show she was administered the vaccine on January 16. Alt News confirmed with local journalists that the photo-op was held on the same day.<\/p>\n She also shared a text message from the national health portal that said she was given the vaccine at 4:05 PM on January 16. The central government has introduced a vaccination tracking portal CoWIN (Covid Vaccine Intelligence Work) which currently does not give access to common people and only officials have access for now. The message below was sent after Dr Rajani\u2019s details were uploaded on CoWIN (screenshot above).<\/p>\n \n Dr Rajani further said Tumkur DHO Dr M B Nagendrappa\u2019s name was not on the list of people who were administered COVID-19 vaccine due to a technical glitch in the system but he was also vaccinated to the best of her knowledge.<\/p>\n Dr Nagendrappa reiterated to Alt News that he was given a vaccine jab and the video just shows a photo-op for the press. After Vishwavani\u2019s report that health officials pretended to take the vaccine, the DHO issued a notice against the local media outlet. He shared a copy of the notice with us which says health officials themselves got vaccinated to spread awareness but the same couldn\u2019t be documented and uploaded on the tracking platform due to technical glitches. \u201cNecessary action would be taken,\u201d reads the notice in reference to Vishwavani\u2019s report.<\/p>\n According to an investigative piece in The Ken<\/a>, CoWIN, the technology platform meant to help track Covid vaccinations, \u201cis glitchy, unpredictable and is also sparking serious privacy concerns\u201d. The report further adds, \u201cConflicting text messages to beneficiaries, manual uploading of names at the vaccine centres, and an app that crashes repeatedly have all slowed down a vaccination drive meant to cover 300 million people.\u201d<\/p>\n India\u2019s software #COVID19<\/a> vaccine software CoWIN (designed by Trigyn Technologies, hosted on Amazon Web Services) has been hitting snags. @PratapVikramSin<\/a>@OBanerji<\/a> and me find out what doctors, health workers are facing on ground & how this will effect vaccination drive #thread<\/a><\/p>\n\n
