Efforts on for 100% vaccination in Bhadradri by this month-end
The Hindu
Over 5.07 lakh of district’s eligible population of 7.67 lakh have taken first dose
As the mega vaccination drive against COVID-19 covered nearly 66-67% of the district’s eligible population so far, the administration has drawn up a plan to accelerate the drive to inoculate the remaining 2.60 lakh population by this month-end.
The official machinery ramped up the vaccination drive to prevent the spread of coronavirus during the long festive season (October-December) which got under way with hordes of shoppers flocking to markets and business centres in Kothagudem, Palvancha, Manuguru and other major towns in the district.
To achieve 100% vaccination in the district, around 30,000 vaccine doses need to be administered daily within the tentative time frame, sources said.
