BENGALURU: Dr NS Murthy (76), research director at the division of Research and
Patents, MS Ramaiah Medical College, who took both doses of the Covishield,
passed away due to Covid-19, earlier this month. He took his first dose on
January 21 and second dose four weeks later.
On April 8, he developed symptoms of diarrhoea and weakness and was admitted to
MS Ramaiah Hospital on April 15.
“Initially, his lungs were okay, but his inflammatory markers were high. On
April 25, his oxygen levels reduced and he was shifted to the ICU. He was put on
non-invasive ventilation. For a week, he was comfortable, but soon his condition
deteriorated and his lungs were affected,” said Dr Rooparani, ICU incharge and
associate professor, Anesthesiology and Critical Care, MS Ramaiah Medical
College Hospital.
He was intubated for a week and on May 7, he succumbed to the virus.
Dr Rooparani said vaccines are supposed to reduce severity of the infection but
efficacy of this vaccine was around 70%. She said that his age and comorbidity
(hypertension) could be contributing factors.“There are a lot of people in our
Covid- ICU who have taken their first or both doses of the vaccine. It is
possible that the antibody response was less despite inoculation,” she added.
Commenting on this, Dr C N Manjunath, director, Jayadeva Institute of
Cardiovascular Sciences and Research and member of Karnataka Covid-19 Technical
Advisory Committee, said that in rare cases, people can succumb, despite
vaccination.
“In some people, immunogenic response can be poor, irrespective of which vaccine
they take,” he said.
