TRICHY: Blame it on the heat or a renewed interest, demand for doorstep vaccination against Covid-19 from the elderly population and persons with disabilities (PwD) is gradually going up in Trichy city. Requests to administer booster doses in bulk have been coming from gated communities, small apartments and government employees’ quarters.
