More than 7 crores got a booster dose
A total of 7.37 crore people in the country have been given booster doses. On July 13, the government announced the installation of boosters for 18+ people free of cost.

Dr. Ram S. of Harvard Medical School. Upadhyay told in a conversation with Bhaskar that the booster dose increases immunity manifold and the risk of re-infection decreases. The immunity from chronic infection is preserved for 14 months.
