Letter: It was from the fourth time since July 7, that the Ministry of Health of Municipal Corporation (SMC) suspended Covid-19 vaccination on Wednesday.
Health officials claim that vaccination is being stopped because MAMTA DIWAS (vaccination day for new births) observed every Wednesday according to the instructions by the State Health Department.
Health workers involved in Covid-19 vaccination were involved during Mamta Diwas.on July 7, 8 and 9, Covid-19 vaccination was suspended across Diamond City.
City letter gets around 16,000 doses of Covid-19 vaccine every day against its capacity to autoculate 30,000 people every day.
Previously the city received 20,000 doses every day.
“Every Wednesday on vaccination MAMTA DIWAS will not take place according to the order of the state government.
On this day the regular immunization will be carried out,” said a health official.
Meanwhile, hundreds of people wait for the second dose and those who try to get the first dose queue every day in vaccination centers.
Many of them have to be disappointed because there is limited stock at each center.
With previously not mandatory registration, people have to wait for hours to take a shot.
In some vaccination centers in letters, people queue up a few hours at 5 in the morning.
