Chandigarh: This center has not recognized the 100% health department claim of the first dose coverage of the covid vaccine.
This department has now begun conducting a survey to confirm “his achievements” after many people hesitate to take a shot.
“I have obstacles to make myself vaccinated.
I haven’t got the first shot.
We were told that there was a door-to-door visit for vaccination.
It’s fictitious,” said a 31-year-old sector 32 resident.
Approved several residents may have been abandoned, Dr.
Amandeep Kang, Director of Health Services, UT, said, “We have launched a door-to-door survey in places like Dhana.
It’s to get an idea of ​​how much is left.
On paper, We have 100% coverage, but we want to find out with our field survey.
“The source said the idea to start this survey to vaccinate the population revealed so the transmission chain was cut.
Most people who come from suburbs such as Mohali and Panchkula work in the city.
“Their organization has a database about their vaccination status, but the same thing is not known by the Chandigarh health department,” said an official at the Panchkula Health Department.
On the other hand, those who come from Panchkula, Mohali or even from neighboring Punjab and Himachal Pradesh have been registered as vaccination from the city.
9.98 Lakh Dosage is given: an official at the UT Health Department said, “They have been added as beneficiaries of the city even if they do not work or live in Chandigarh.” The department has provided 9,98,641 vaccine doses so far.
The department claims almost all qualified populations have been given the first dose and 34.5% second dose.
