Ghaziabad/Noida: Ever since the Covid vaccine rollout started for all, a big gap has been emerging between Noida and Ghaziabad’s urban and rural areas leaving a chunk of the population vulnerable to the virus.
Gautam Budh Nagar and Ghaziabad have managed to inoculate only a fraction of its rural population from April 1 till now, while the urban areas have received a lion’s share of the vaccinations. In Ghaziabad, only 1.6 lakh of the total 11 lakh rural population has been given at least one dose. In GB Nagar, only about a lakh of its 5 lakh rural population have been inoculated at least once.
