Asks Health officials to nominate special officers to oversee process
Chief Secretary Somesh Kumar has said that steps have been initiated to complete vaccination against COVID-19 in all districts under erstwhile Mahbubnagar district by administering 15 lakh doses before the month-end.
The Chief Secretary, who visited Mahbubnagar district to review the progress of vaccination special drive with senior officials, directed them to prepare micro-level plans to reach the target. Officials concerned should identify places where the process was not up to expectation and ensure completion of vaccination by staying there, if need be. They should seek cooperation of the elected representatives wherever necessary and take steps to give publicity to the progress achieved on a daily basis, he said.
The government had decided to conduct special reviews at district level after Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao’s instructions to expedite coverage of 100% people before the month end.
