New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Monday dismissed a petition that alleged side effects like blood clotting from COVID-19 vaccines.
The bench, comprising Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud, Justices J B Pardiwala, and Manoj Misra, remarked that the Public Interest Litigation was merely to sensationalize the issue.
“File a class action suit! What’s the point of this? Understand the side effects of not getting vaccinated. We don’t want to stir this up; it’s merely for creating a sensation,” the bench commented. The petition was initiated by Priya Mishra among others.
