Yesterday, a 84 year old man in Bihar was caught trying to take 12th dose of COVID vaccines. Many people made fun of him which seems to be bit harsh on him. We can look into his adventure from different perspective with a positive mindset.
This man should be given immediate tourist visa of USA as vaccination brand ambassador to convince anti-vexxers to assure them that vaccines are safe and should be adopted.
He is a walking clinical trail setup and should be used as a national treasure who has already donated his body while still alive to the greater cause of medical reaseach. How about a Padma Shri next year?
He also claims that multiple shots of COVID vaccine has helped him relieve his knee ache. It is definitely something worth investigating for its further usage. Research subject could be whether vaccines can help us fight other diseases like piles. Also, if these effects are valid limited only to free vaccines or it is equally effective when people have to pay for it.
He has also shown the fallacy in our aadhar authentication system. What he has discovered for free is generally done by world class hackers who charge a huge fee. He should be given an advisory role at ministry of information technology as an consultant hacker.
He has also shown mirror to those headlines craving celebrities a way how to grab headlines without spending big bucks on PR agencies.
But aa usual, we people are slow to recognise the genius in this old man. We Biharis are simply making fun of this modern era Dadhichi by quoting a popular old bihari idiom.
मुफत के चंदन, रगड़ ले बेटा रघुनंदन
वो भी एकाध रत्ती नहीं, ललाट भर के।
