State Minister Prof. Channa Jayasumana said there were no adverse reactions experienced by the people who received the jabs of Astrazeneca COVID-19 vaccines, apart from mild symptoms such as fever.
The Minister was responding to a query about reports that some health workers had experienced serious symptoms after being vaccinated. He said only mild symptoms were reported.
“There are reactions, but no adverse reactions. If we are bothered about them, we cannot carry out the vaccination programme,” he said.

No worries Dear Minister,
It is the same with the water from the well, though it does not do anything about prevention of COVID-19 infection and no reproducible verifiable evidence that is available but a 0% one woman pulled through between her legs a few weeks ago.
Please include that in your statement.
