Odisha fears vaccine stock-out for a week
The Hindu
Urges Centre to replenish stock immediately
The Odisha government on Tuesday urged the Centre to make doses available immediately to the State as it would have no stock of vaccine left for a week after its current stock runs out. Pradipta Mohapatra, Additional Chief Secretary (Health) wrote to Union Health Secretary: “Since late June, the State is vaccinating over three lakh citizens daily subject to availability of vaccines. On Monday, we had administered 4.02 lakh doses successfully — highest ever single day vaccination for the State.” “However, as on today [Tuesday], we have 6.14 lakh doses of Covishield available, which will be consumed within the two days. The next tranche of Covishield is scheduled for July 15. Hence the State will have stock-out of vaccines from July 9 to 15,” Mr. Mohapatra stated.
