Pilot project to provide Covaxin at affordable rates
Jalandhar: In a first-of-its-kind initiative in the state, the district administration led by DC Ghanshyam Thori on Saturday came up with a pilot project to provide Covaxin vaccination facilities to citizens at affordable prices in the city. The DC said the district relief society had procured 1,000 doses of Covaxin, which were being administered at three-session sites — HMV, KMV and Lyallpur Khalsa College. Anyone above 18 years can book vaccination slot by visiting the link www.citywoofer.com/event/vaccination-drive. He said the booking would have to be done via the site as no spot registration and payment would be accepted. He said the administration through the district relief society was providing this vaccine at a price that is less than half the amount being charged by private hospitals. He said the registered beneficiaries could visit the session sites concerned between 10 am and 2 pm daily. All citizens must carry their Aadhaar card, confirmed booking slip, and other necessary documents at the time of their visit to three-session sites. TNS
