Opposition Leader Sajith Premadasa last week obtained the first dose of the Covid-19 vaccination and announced through social media that he had received the jab.
However, Premadasa’s jab became a much-discussed issue in Parliament with governing party members on many occasions during the last week, noting that the Opposition Leader had received the Pfizer vaccine.
It was governing party MP Sampath Athukorala who first questioned how Premadasa received the Pfizer vaccine when it was not being administered in Colombo.
“We were made to understand that Premadasa was given the Pfizer vaccine. All MPs were given the AstraZeneca vaccine. Pfizer has not been used in Colombo. Therefore, we wonder how the Leader of Opposition got it?” Athukorala queried.
Neither Premadasa nor the Opposition responded to this query. After several references were made to Premadasa receiving the Pfizer vaccine, the Opposition Leader responded saying he received the vaccine after strong medical advice and after a large number of people had received the jab.
“Under the strict instructions of doctors who treated me for Covid-19, I proceeded to get vaccinated today. Doctors strongly warned me that failure to get vaccinated may result in a recurrence of Covid-19 which may be fatal. In the context of my present health condition, I acceded to their directive,” Premadasa said through his Facebook account. Questions over Sajith’s jab
