NEW DELHI: Yoga guru Ramdev made a U-turn on Thursday when he said that he would soon get the Covid-19 jab, besides calling doctors “God’s envoys on earth”.
Ramdev had earlier stirred a controversy with his comments on the efficacy of allopathic drugs against Covid-19, drawing the ire of the medical fraternity.
Welcoming Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s announcement about free vaccine to all from 21 June, Ramdev said that it was a “historic” step and appealed to all to get themselves vaccinated. “Get both doses of the vaccine and the double protection of yoga and ayurveda. They will combine to give you such a robust shield of protection that not a single person will die from Covid,” he said. Asked when he will get the vaccine shot, the yoga guru said, “Very soon.”
Ramdev also praises “good” allopathic doctors, describing them as “God’s envoys on earth”.
On the ongoing confrontation with the Indian Medical Association (IMA), Ramdev said he cannot have any animosity with any organisation. All he was against the exploitation of people in the name of medicines, he said.
