Fact Check! Anaesthetics can be life-threatening for COVID-19 vaccinated people?
A social media post claiming that anaesthetic drugs can be life-threatening for vaccinated people has gone viral.
CLAIM:
Anyone who has been vaccinated against coronavirus is prohibited from taking any type of anaesthetic, even local anaesthetics or dentist anaesthetic, because this poses a great danger to the life of the vaccinated person. It asks vaccinated people to wait for a month before undergoing these surgeries else it might even cause death.
Press Information Bureau conducted a fact check on the claim and said there is no merit to this claim.
No such warning has been issued by any doctor or vaccine maker.
Doctors, as a practice, ask people to get vaccinated with 2 doses before undergoing an elective surgery so as to be safe.
