The Nightingales Home Health Services (NHHS, an organization which provides healthcare at home) announced Swine Flu vaccination services at doorstep in Hyderabad.
Hyderabad has been hit by Swine Flu and the toll has reached more than 10 since the outbreak in August 2016.
As per reports, NHHS has so far administered more than 3,000 vaccinations for employees at a large corporate.
Dr. Vijay Agarwal, Clinical Director Nightingales Home Health Services, said, "Senior citizens, children especially below two years, and pregnant women are in the high risk category as they have weaker immunity. This can be proven by the fact that Swine Flu-related deaths in the city involved mostly women who were either diabetic or had hypertension."
"I think it's a wakeup call for us. We cannot let people die when preventive aspects like vaccinations are available. To eliminate the influenza virus, we need to take active steps and vaccinate ourselves," added Sudhaker Jadhav, Regional Head of the NHHS.
