Everyone has become a doctor and has started questioning the vaccine: Karan

People underestimate how important it is to be happy. The idea has to be that when all this gets over, one doesn’t need to start from scratch... KARAN TACKER, Actor

Recently, actor Karan Tacker took to social media to share a rather important poem on the current health crisis. Along with spreading awareness about Covid-19, he outlined the issue of false information doing the rounds on social media and urged everyone to get themselves vaccinated.

“The reason for writing the poem was that we’re all aware of what’s happening in the world. There’s a lot of news that we read on messaging platforms these days. Every morning, my parents come and ask me whether it’s verified news or not. I’m a part of media in a certain way and not everything that we read or see in the news is authentic,” he elaborates.

Tacker stresses on the ‘misguided information’ surrounding vaccination in the country. Commenting on the need to bust myths and rumours about vaccines, the actor feels that everyone should try and be a responsible citizen and help break the chain. “Everyone is allowed to voice their opinion and it is up to them if they don’t want to take the vaccine. But the risk of them being carriers of coronavirus is much higher,” says the Special Ops actor, adding, “Today, everyone has become a doctor and has started questioning the vaccine and in the process, they are misguided, which results in a sense of misgiving, too.”

Tacker also believes that it’s important to keep ourselves occupied by doing something productive amid the lockdown. “An idle mind will make you worried. We all need to be in a happy space. People underestimate how important it is to be happy. The idea has to be that when all this gets over, one doesn’t need to start from scratch and rather, pick up things from where they last left them,” he opines.
