Covid vaccine: 18% kids in Chandigarh not jabbed even once

Hindustan Times  

Even as classes at Chandigarh schools and colleges have fully resumed, around 18% of the eligible children, aged between 15 and 18, have not shown up for even the first dose of the anti-Covid vaccine. Not only the first dose coverage, Chandigarh is even lagging in fully immunising the children, as only 36% of the eligible teenagers have taken both doses of vaccine so far, data from the UT health department shows. Since January 3, the health department has inoculated 58,925 children with the first dose of Covaxin and 26,294 are fully vaccinated, falling short of its January 26 target of vaccinating the entire eligible population. But children should come forward, as no side effect has been reported in any child in Chandigarh post immunisation.” 98% senior citizens take precaution dose Though few frontline workers and health workers have come forward to take the precaution dose, the most vulnerable section – senior citizens with comorbidities – has shown a good response, as 98% of them have already taken the shot.
