On Friday and Saturday, vaccination will be with online appointments only.
Owing to the new directions from the Centre to increase the gap between two doses of Covishield to 12 to 16 weeks, municipal commissioner Iqbal Singh Chahal said only healthcare and frontline workers now qualify for the second dose of Covishield since their vaccination had started on January 16 and February 3, respectively. People from these two categories may even take the walk-in route for their second dose, said additional municipal commissioner Suresh Kakani.
For people above 60 years of age and people between 45 and 59 years of age with comorbidities, vaccination had started on March 1, so the earliest they qualify for the second dose is after Sunday, May 23.
