Boman Irani wrote on Instagram, "Brothers and Sisters. This is very very important. The recent surge could have been less intense if people who had the chance to get vaccinated had taken it. However, it is not too late. This is the reality through statistics. *The vaccination helps.* Now let’s fight this and not act like doctors from the University of WhatsApp forwards. Please take it as and when you get the chance. A big jhappi to Anoop Lawrence, Hilda, and Sisters Clemintina and Ashwini from #GlobalHospitalMumbai. Kindness and the softest little injection goes a long way.
Madhuri Dixit tweeted, "Got my second jab today. I urge everyone to get vaccinated as soon as it's available to you. Syringe #StayHomeStaySafe"
