Thirty-seven doctors from Delhi’s Sir Ganga Ram Hospital tested positive for the novel coronavirus after getting the double dose of the Covid vaccines.

The majority of them had received full doses of the Covid vaccine. Thirty-two of the doctors are isolated at home and five have been admitted to the hospital. Most of them have mild symptoms of the infection. “The doctors were infected while treating Covid patients at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital. They have mild fever and weakness,” said sources.

Sources also said that the number of infected doctors may be more than 37.

A similar situation was reported the previous day when at least 40 doctors tested positive for Covid-19 at Lucknow’s King George’s Medical University after being administered the second dose of the vaccine.

This news comes among rising concerns of the virus being more contagious in the current ‘second wave’, which is leading to large numbers of healthcare workers getting infected, even after being vaccinated.
