Mumbai: Six months into a Covid vaccination drive, every sixth Military Military which qualifies for a shot is fully vaccinated, but the view closer to the number of city vaccination reveals more than 50% of citizens of the city – are considered the most vulnerable to SARS.
COV-2 virus – has got both of their shots.
The additional Commissioner BMC Suresh Kakani said half of the population 60-plus Mumbai was fully vaccinated.
Of the 11 senior Lakh citizens were calculated during the survey ‘my family, my responsibility last year, the first shot coverage was 88.8%.
In accordance with the BMC vaccine update on Monday, 9.77 Senior Lakh residents in Mumbai had taken at least one shot of the Covid-19 vaccine by opposing 5.58 lakh, who had taken both.
Overall, 55% of the total 90 lakh people in a qualified city have taken one shot from the covishield or covaxin.
In mass vaccination drives, which began on January 16, city coverage seems to be higher in terms of percentage than numbers for Maharashtra and India.
While 10.7% of the population who qualified 8.5 crore Maharashtra was fully vaccinated, almost 36% had at least one vaccine.
All-India’s first shooting coverage is 23%, while 5.9% is fully vaccinated against Covid.
BMC Executive Health Officer Dr.
Mangala Gomare said, “We have covered 15 lakh populations with two vaccines, but there is far ahead.” The 90 lakh population needs 1.8 doses of crore, but only 65 doses of lakh are injected so far.
There are more than 400 vaccine centers in Mumbai who manage between 60,000 doses and 1.25 lakh on almost every day.
Civil hospital doctors say, “The main challenge is the availability of shares.
We have infrastructure to vaccinate the entire city in two months – except for adequate vaccine doses.” However, there is a problem with vaccination coverage data: When India allows every citizen to take a shot at Any part of the country, some of those who are vaccinated in Mumbai can become residents of nearby satellite cities such as Thane and Vasai or far cities.
“While the aadhar card from the recipient is checked before vaccination, Cowin Portal does not provide a partewell domicile or a person’s temporary address.
So we have no way to find out whether all those who are vaccinated in Mumbai live in the city or are traveling,” said a senior BMC official.
Kakani said senior citizens could not travel far from their homes for vaccination.
“At least in the case of senior citizens, we can say half of the 60-plus population Mumbai is fully vaccinated,” he said.
In the case of the lower age group 60, he said people traveling from Thane or Kalyan could become a Mumbai workforce.
“During the survey ‘my responsibility I was’ my family’, we found the city population about 1.29 crores,” Kakani said.
His health team estimated that around 45 lakh included in the age group 18-45, while 35 lakh was in the age group of 45-added.
In accordance with vaccine updates Monday, 50% of the 18-44 year age group, whose vaccination began with fitting and bursts on May 1, has received their first shot.
In the 45-Plus age group (which included 60-pluses too), 32% was fully vaccinated while a portion of a portion of a portion of 67% was partially vaccinated.
