48% of the 2.8 crore eligible beneficiaries yet to take first shot
Around two crore doses of COVID-19 vaccines have been administered in Telangana since the immunisation programme was launched in the State in mid-January. The first one crore jabs were given in 161 days (January 16 to June 25), and the next set of one crore doses were given in almost half the time — 82 days (June 26 to September 15).
Health department staff were aggressively involved in providing vaccines at government health facilities. Besides the government sector, the jabs were given at private healthcare facilities too. Of the two crore doses, 1.44 crore were first jabs.
Around 2.8 crore people in the State who are above the age of 18 years are eligible for vaccination. To this day, 48% of the 2.8 crore targeted beneficiaries are yet to receive even the first dose of vaccine.
