India’s Prime Minister, Narendra Modi took to the microblogging site, to send former cricket captain, who became prime minister in 2018, wishes for a healthy and quick recovery from the novel coronavirus.

However, here’s an explanation for all those who doubt that the vaccine does not work against the novel coronavirus now that the premier has tested positive for the virus after getting his first dose.

Infectious diseases expert Dr. Faisal Mahmood told DAWN, “Getting the coronavirus [after being vaccinated] is not possible,” he said. He added that the vaccine begins to work two to three weeks after being administered the second dose.
