A leaflet containing precautionary measures, compiled in collaboration with the office of the Provincial Director of Health Services was distributed to each person who arrived to be vaccinated.
Commenting on this effort of Shield, Naveed Anjoon, Marketing Manager at Hemas Consumer Brands said, “We are indeed happy to lend a helping hand to the government’s vaccination drive and its efforts to curb the Covid-19 outbreak. We noticed that most people are unaware of the precautionary measures to be taken post-vaccination.

Having received good feedback from the public, we are planning to expand this initiative to other areas as well.”
