Amid the reluctance shown by the people, the district administration’s decision of opening up public parks, shrines and shopping complexes for vaccinated people only can prove a game changer and can help the administration in increasing the rate of vaccination. The entry of people without getting vaccination when barred into important places can lead to people giving up the vaccine hesitancy, which will help the administration in remaining prepared to fight the third wave of COVID-19, which the experts are predicting may arrive sooner or later. According to the reports, the experts have said that approximately 70% of the world’s 7.9 billion people must be fully vaccinated to end the COVID-19 pandemic. As of June 21, 2021, 10.04% of the global population had been fully vaccinated, nearly all of them in rich countries. Only 0.9% of people in low-income countries have received at least one dose, they had said. One fails to understand why the people are so hesitant with regard to vaccination. They need to take a cue from millions of people across the globe, who have been vaccinated and are living their lives without any trouble. More than 99% of people didn’t even develop any side effects. All eyes are on the new directives of the government as it is expected that banning the entry of unvaccinated people can help in putting an end to the hesitancy among the locals about the vaccination.
