As
work
resumes
in
the
entertainment
industry
while
the
country
is
still
battling
COVID-19,
Pankaj
Tripathi
has
opened
up
about
the
necessary
precautions
and
safety
measures
needed
to
be
followed.
The
actor
also
said
with
an
imminent
threat
of
a
third
wave,
getting
everyone
vaccinated
should
be
a
top
priority
for
the
production
houses.
Talking
about
vaccination
drives,
he
told
Hindustan
Times,
"Each
and
every
production
house
or
OTT
platform
is
now
doing
extensive
vaccination
drive.
And
that
is
not
just
for
actors
but
for
everyone
involved
in
a
project,
which
also
includes
staff
members
of
actors.
All
of
my
staff,
people
who
go
out
to
work
along
with
me
and
are
with
me
on
set
have
taken
their
first
dose
of
the
vaccine."
The
actor
shared
that
he
feels
more
at
ease
now
that
he
has
taken
both
vaccine
dosage.
Tripathi
also
urged
fans
to
ignore
any
unconfirmed
reports
related
to
the
vaccine
and
get
themselves
vaccinated.
"I
sincerely
urge
you
all
to
ignore
all
the
baseless
rumours
and
for
your
safety,
do
get
yourself
and
your
entire
family
vaccinated
as
and
when
it's
available
to
you
during
this
vaccination
drive.
There
is
credibility," the
Mirzapur
actor
said.
Tripathi
added
vaccination
is
the
way
to
resume
normalcy,
"I
think
it
that
is
the
way.
Of
course
there
are
side
effects
post
the
vaccine
but
that
is
normal."
He
further
shared
that
he
too
felt
"feverish"
but
as
told
by
doctors
he
took
a
paracetamol
and
felt
better.
"Baaki
sab
bhram
hai.
I
don't
want
ki
log
bhram
mein
rahe
vaccine
ko
lekar," he
added.
(Everything
else
is
a
myth.
I
don't
want
people
to
have
a
misconception
about
the
vaccine.)
