The 87-year-old retired race relations specialist from Newcastle will help create a medical history when he does his “duty” and becomes one of the first people in the Western world to have the covid vaccine.
Hari Shukla said, “I am very happy that we are hopefully coming to an end of this epidemic and I am happy to do my job by vaccinating.” “I think it’s my duty to do that and do whatever it can to help me.”
Shukla and his wife Ranjan (83) will receive their first injection of the Pfizer / Bioentech vaccine at the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle on Tuesday morning, a week after Britain became the first country in the Western world to approve the coronavirus vaccine:

As countries begin vaccinating in the coming weeks and months, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanam Bra Bresius urged them to prioritize those most in need.
“These are not easy decisions,” he said, setting out the WHO guidelines.
AFP: Tedros said health workers at high risk of infection are a priority, plus people are at the highest risk of serious illness or death due to their age – thereby easing the pressure on health systems.
He said the latter should be followed by people at higher risk of serious disease due to underlying conditions and marginalized groups at higher risk.
The WHO’s ACT-accelerator mechanism is a global effort to accelerate the development of risk and reward, Covid-19 vaccines, tests and treatments in rich and poor countries, and to distribute and distribute wealth evenly regardless.
However, the plan urgently needs $ 4.3 billion, with another .9 23.9 billion needed in 2021.
Ryan said, “What we need now globally is not to enter the land of empty promises in terms of supporting the ACT-cele accelerator, urging wealthy donors to stump up.
“This is a tool to make the allocation fair and even. But what is not in place is credit for what happens in 2021.
“There is a huge gap between rhetoric and reality.”

WHO against the mandatory Covid-19 vaccine
The World Health Organization said Monday that persuading people on the quality of the Covid-19 vaccine would be more effective than trying to force Jabs to do so, AFP reports.
The WHO said it would be up to individual countries how they wanted to launch a vaccination campaign against the coronavirus epidemic.
But the UN health agency insisted it would be the wrong way to make immunization mandatory against the disease, adding that there had been mandatory instances of vaccine use in the past, which is further opposed.
“I don’t think the orders are the direction to go here, especially for these vaccines,” Kate O’Brien, director of the WHO’s immunization division, told a virtual news conference.
“It is a better position to really encourage and facilitate vaccination without such requirements.
“I don’t think we imagine any countries making orders for vaccinations.”
O’Brien said the hospital may have some businesses that are being vaccinated that may be necessary or highly recommended for staff and patient safety.
But WHO experts acknowledged that as the vaccine became available they were fighting a battle to persuade the general public to take the vaccine.
