NOIDA/GHAZIABAD: Some residents’ welfare associations in Noida have started helping the senior citizens in the city get vaccinated against Covid-19, a task that can be hard for the elderly who may face monetary, technological and commuting issues.
The RWAs are not only helping the recipients register for the jab but also getting them to the nearest hospital for free. In some cases, the RWAs have started bearing the entire cost of paid vaccinations in private facilities.
“We have compiled a list of over 50 senior citizens and those with comorbidities who live in blocks C, D, E and F. We will facilitate their vaccinations at Satya Medical Centre. All costs of the first dose will be borne by the RWA. The medical centre will depute a person to help with the registrations,” said Sanjeev Kumar, RWA general secretary, Sector 51.

Noida: The Co-WIN portal had received 15,035 registrations from Gautam Budh Nagar for vaccine shots by Thursday evening, around one-fourth of the March target of 66,000, as the third phase of inoculations for the 60-plus population and those above 45 with comorbidities got under way across UP.
Some hospitals reported a big rush but vaccinations still fell well short of the target set for the first day 4,085 of the targeted 6,741 recipients received the shots on the first day, a 61% turnout. While 1,826 of the recipients were vaccinated at government hospitals, 2,259 got the jabs in private hospitals.
A majority of the recipients on Thursday was registered during walk-ins at session sites. Officials from the health department said it is the initial stage of the third phase and very few people could register on the portal. Besides, they said, some people may want to wait for a few days.
