Gurugram: Door-to-door vax for 12-14 planned in summer break

GURUGRAM: The health department is planning to organise a door-to-door Covid-19 vaccination drive for teenagers in the 12-14 age group in the city during the summer holidays, an official said on Monday. So far, 34% of the children in this age group have received the first dose of Corbevax since the vaccination for them began on March 16. Around 56,000 teens in this age group in the city are yet to take the jab against Covid-19.

“We have already reached out to all schools. We are gathering area-wise data so that we can conduct the vaccination drive where maximum recipients are unvaccinated in this category,” said Gurgaon chief medical officer Virender Yadav. Summer vacations normally begin around May and go on till late June-early July.
