A large turnout of public at the 417 vaccination centres across the district and in the city limits resulted in inoculation of covid-19 vaccine doses to a majority of the beneficiaries here on Sunday. However, in remote locations in rural areas and in some sites within the Corporation limits, the vaccine stock was insufficient as many, who came after 10.30 a.m., could not get the shots.
While the health department officials said that they had sufficient stocks during the mega campaign held on September 12, that close to 74,000 people were vaccinated, they were taken aback as large number of public above 18 years turned up at the vaccination centres as early as 9 a.m. on Sunday.
