NEW DELHI: The much-awaited vaccination drive against Covid-19 began in the capital on Saturday, with more than 53% of the health workers enrolled for getting the shots turning up at the 81 vaccination centres spread across 11 districts of Delhi.
Officials said 4,319 people were given the vaccine on Day One. The rest of the total 8,117 health workers scheduled to receive the jabs on Saturday did not turn up.
Most of the beneficiaries were staffers working at the hospitals where vaccine centres have been set up. Those scheduled to get the vaccine but could not turn up will not be accommodated on the next day. A decision about all those left out will be taken after a review currently planned at the end of the inoculation drive of all enrolled healthcare workers.
