In one of the many recent cases of human magnetism reported in India, a woman from West Bengal‘s North 24 Parganas claimed to have developed similar magnetic features. However, unlike others, she does not blame it on the COVID-19 vaccine and neither is she scared of it, India Today reported.

Anima Naskar, 66, said she has developed magnetism due to which metallic items are getting stuck on her body. While she does not believe that the phenomenon happened due to the COVID vaccine, she has developed magnetism only after getting fully inoculated.

“I saw on the news that someone in North Bengal has faced similar problems. The man claimed that he has developed this issue post completion of two doses of vaccine. Since I was also done with both the jabs, my son tried sticking coins on my hand and it worked,” Anima Naskar told India Today TV.

Anima told India Today that the application of talcum powder is helping and dropping these metals from her body.

On being asked if the magnetism scare her at all, she laughed and said “No. I am not afraid but curious to know why it’s happening.”

Sandeep, Naskar’s son, said he will report the problem to the local government’s health department and follow their instructions. 

However, this is not the first case of human magnetism in the country. A few days back, Arvind Sonar, a resident of Maharashtra’s Nashik, has claimed that he developed magnetic powers after getting the second dose of Oxford-Serum’s Covishield vaccine.

While most of the affected individuals claimed that the magnetism developed only after taking the two doses of vaccine, medical bodies and experts across the country have debunked any relation between the two.
