Chandigarh: While the UT government believes it will reach 100% of the first dose vaccination in mid-August, the 15 lakh center population projection will not be a target.
UT Secretary UT Arun Gupta said: “The targeted size is 7 lakh, when we go on the 2011 census and there is no communication that comes to us to cover 15 lakh.” The UT Health Department has added 17% per calculation in 2011 to increase the last decade but still not close to the central government’s record that the city has 15 lakh people.

Dr.
Kang said: “We have vaccassed many floating populations tricity too, so daily data on the co-win application does not match the daily dose record.
This application provides real-time data and we update by 7PM.
But the difference is not great.” Previously , when the UT health department claims that it has included more than 90% of health workers, the figure of the Indonesian government is 70%.
In the 2011 census, Chandigarh was found to have a population of 10.55 lakh, including those under 18 years.
UT advisor Dharam Pal said: “We can’t stop anyone from coming to town for vaccinations.
We send our van and ambulance to the colony, village, and jammed area, to vaccinate every adult who qualifies in the city.
When the population floats Tricity also comes to us for vaccination, we will end up with only 10 to 15% more dosage than our target.
