It is crucial to emphasize to the undergraduate students studying at a tertiary care teaching hospital about the importance of vaccination against COVID-19 and booster doses to keep the infection under control. Caution should be taken against new variants of SARS-CoV-2 and their mode of transmission. Viral genomic sequencing and treatment-resistant strains might endanger the global public health in the future, and it is essential to keep a check on the virulent strains at regular intervals to protect the nation against COVID-19.

Abstract

It is crucial to emphasize to the undergraduate students studying at a tertiary care teaching hospital about the importance of vaccination against COVID-19 and booster doses to keep the infection under control. Caution should be taken against new variants of SARS-CoV-2 and their mode of transmission. Viral genomic sequencing and treatment-resistant strains might endanger the global public health in the future, and it is essential to keep a check on the virulent strains at regular intervals to protect the nation against COVID-19.
