Trinamool Congress Member of Parliament (MP) Mimi Chakraborty, who was reported to have taken a vaccine shot at an inoculation drive in Kolkata which later turned out to be an elaborate scam, has now taken seriously ill, reported Hindustan Times Bangla on Saturday. Mimi was ‘vaccinated’ four days ago at a camp organised in the city’s Kasba area, soon after which she became suspicious of the process and informed the police, eventually
leading to the fraudulent operation being busted.
Earlier, Mimi had taken to her social media handle to assure people that the vaccines, albeit fake, were not harmful. She informed that the vials being used at the camp have been sent to the lab for testing and results are expected in the next 4 to 5 days. Mimi fell ill on Saturday, four days after she received her jab at the supposed vaccination site. Her house physician was summoned to the residence yesterday morning, adding that her medical complications include acute stomach ache and profuse sweating. Although she has received medical advice to get herself admitted to a hospital, Mimi has reportedly refused, opting for home treatment instead. Mimi had some previous medical conditions — gallbladder sludge and a sluggish liver. However, it is not yet known if the ‘vaccine’ doses she received — probable antibacterial
injections — triggered any adverse side effects.
