Omar on Wednesday took his first dose of Covid-19 vaccine
Srinagar- Two days after receiving the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, National Conference leader and former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Omar Abdullah Friday tested positive for the deadly virus.
“For a year I did my best to dodge this damn virus but it’s finally caught up with me. I tested positive for #COVIDー19 this afternoon. I’m completely asymptotic. Based on medical advice I’m self-isolating at home & monitoring my parameters like oxygen saturation levels etc,” Omar tweeted.
