New Delhi (NVI): A viral social media post has claimed that women should not take COVID Vaccine five days before and after their menstrual cycle.

Debunking the claim, the PIB’s Fact Check Unit said that the claim is fake and one should not fall for rumours.

“Fake post circulating on social media claims that women should not take COVID19 Vaccine 5 days before and after their menstrual cycle,” the PIB tweeted.

“Don’t fall for rumours! All people above 18 should get vaccinated after May 1. Registration starts on April 28 on http://cowin.gov.in,” it added.
