VADODARA: The doctors at the Sanjeli community health centre in Dahod district were in for a surprise when around 30 persons came in different vehicles from neighbouring Rajasthan state to get vaccinated there on Sunday.
The group included persons who were looking to go to countries in Persian Gulf to work there as well as those related to them.
The residents of Sagwada in Dungarpur district of Rajasthan had to come to Sanjeli looking for Covishield as that would ensure that they are able to go abroad.
Hospital superintendent U C Lohra said that the group included eight males and 21 women.
“They said that Covaxin was being used in their area.
Looking for Covishield, they were able to schedule a vaccine at our hospital,” said Lohra.
Lohra added that seeing others getting vaccinated, the driver of one of the vehicles used by the group to come to Sanjeli was also motivated to get a jab.
According to Lohra, it is possible to book a vaccine at any vaccination centre in the country over the portal.
“We also ensured that there were no hurdles in their vaccination,” he said.
