Drive-In Cinema In Madhya Pradesh Turns Into Covid Vaccination Centre

The Madhya Pradesh tourism corporation started the drive-in centre at Ashoka Hotel in Bhopal where vaccinations will take place between 5pm and 8pm.

What was once a drive-in movie theatre in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, has now been turned into a COVID-19 drive-in vaccination centre where people can get their shot while sitting inside the safety of their cars. मध्यप्रदेश के पहले "ड्राइव इन सिनेमा" भोपाल में "ड्राइव इन वैक्सीनेशन" शुरू हुआ है। @healthminmp और @UNICEFIndia के सहयोग से राज्य पयर्टन निगम की श्यामला हिल्स स्थित होटल लेक व्यू के परिसर में इसका संचालन किया जा रहा है। (1/2)RM: https://t.co/XrTh6SxZt5#LargestVaccinationDrivepic.twitter.com/PSukaetoc4 The Madhya Pradesh tourism corporation started the drive-in centre at Ashoka Hotel in the city where immunisations started from May 1 when the centre launched the phase 3 vaccination drive for those above the age of 18 across India. Due to adequate social distancing and no possibility of crowding, many people said they felt safer while getting their Covid vaccine dose here as compared to going to the hospital. Ashoka Hotel manager KK Patel said there has been good response from the people. "They are getting the shot in open-air, while sitting inside their car. They are being asked to wait for around half an hour in the vehicle after taking the dose (to monitor their heath)," he told news agency ANI, adding that the drive-in vaccination is safe for people.
