By Ashish Srivastava New Delhi, Jan 21 : The update in Co-WIN application has led a huge impact on the immunisation figures in the fourth session of Covid vaccination drive conducted in the national capital on Thursday. Many government hospitals which were struggling to achieve even 30 per cent of their target, have crossed the halfway mark now.
The Delhi government’s Lok Nayak Hospital achieved 100 per cent of their inoculation target before the end of Thursday’s session. “The 100th dose was administered around 3.15 p.m.,” said Dr Anil Gupta, vaccination coordinator at the hospital.
The hospital had vaccinated 35 people on Tuesday.
One adverse event following immunisation was reported in Lok Nayak where a healthcare worker suffered shivering and was admitted to a general ward. “His condition is stable. We are just keeping him under observation. He will be discharged soon,” Gupta said.
The Delhi State Cancer Institute (DSCI) vaccinated 50 people.
Dr Pragya Shukla, its nodal officer for Covid vaccination, said that the hospital has touched this figure (50) for the first time since the vaccination drive started. “I hope that we will be able to vaccinate at full capacity in the coming days,” she added.
