Vadodara: The state government has revised the target for Covid-19 vaccination in the city and increases it significantly.
The initial target of vaccination has raised eyebrows because it is much lower than the number of voters in the city.
The initial official vaccination target for Vadodara Municipal Corporation (VMC) limit reached 13.15,477.
Going with this, the city has reached more than 100% of the first dose vaccination until Friday 13.29,562 people get the first dose.
At the other end, 8.27,215 people have been fully vaccinated so far.
The initial target given to VMC is far from the sign because the city actually has 14.46,212 voters according to the data for the last civilian poll.
Officials said that this was a fair estimate of those who qualified for vaccination.
Even this is not the right number because many voters may not live in the city and many city residents may be elected elsewhere.
“The target has been revised given the various factors.
This might not be the right number, but it is a fair estimate.
Our efforts must approach that number as much as possible,” said the VMC (health) medical officer Dr.
Devesh Patel.
A source at the Ministry of Health shows that there must be anomalies in the number of people who are vaccinated in the city too.
“Many are not residents or city voters take Jab here when they work in the city when the trip starts.
Many of the nearest rural areas take the Jab here because the vaccination drive starts in the city before being launched in the villages.” Also, many of the cities take.
JAB elsewhere when it is difficult to order slots in the city, “said the source.
He added that there was a bag added to the previous VMC limit, but it was still handled by the Panchayat District Health Department.
Patel showed that many received the second dose.
The second high dose compared to the first dose, it is expected that the percentage of the second dose coverage will also increase significantly in the coming day.
