II.Masses have a robust immune system and do not need vaccines.
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Verbal Reasoning Question 5 Detailed Solution
Option 4.Neither I nor II is true.
The statement states that Corona vaccine will be given to the front liners and the elderly first.
From what is supplied it cannot be concluded that vaccine is given as a trial to this set of population. A vaccine can only be given when it clears all the trials. Therefore conclusion I does not follow.
Also from the supplied statement, we cannot conclude that rest of the population has a good immune system and does not need the vaccine. Therefore, conclusion II does not follow.
Hence, option 4 is correct.
