There are many places in the district where people are either totally ignorant about the vaccination process or they are scared of taking the vaccines, because of many rumours and misconceptions about the COVID-19 vaccines that are circulating around, said Mazumder who comes out of his home early in the morning in his scooty to bust the myths against vaccination and escort the people to get vaccinated.
