New Delhi: While Delhi is the only city in the country to have administered more than 2 crore vaccine doses and nearly half of its adult population is now fully vaccinated, over 19 lakh eligible people are yet to get the shots. A drive has now been started to identify these beneficiaries.
Till 7pm on Sunday, 2,04,80,189 vaccine doses had been administered, including 1,30,54,901 first doses and 74,25,288 second. With the number of eligible people being around 1.5 crore, 49.5% of adults had been fully vaccinated and 87% had received at least one dose of the vaccine.
With 19.4 lakh adults still not being vaccinated, this cause for concern was discussed in a recent meeting of Delhi Disaster Management Authority, sources said.
In the meeting, it was discussed that though Delhi was leading in vaccination among metro cities, a “targeted approach” was being implemented to reach out to the remaining eligible beneficiaries who hadn’t received a single dose of the vaccine. Efforts were also on to create awareness about getting the second dose of the vaccine in time.
