Indicating an alarmingly mismanaged beginning for Phase-I of the much-awaited COVID-19
vaccination rollout in the city, it has emerged that
Pune Municipal Corporation (
PMC) has started preparations on a rather logistically lax note.
As the entire nation enthusiastically geared up for the mass vaccination drive scheduled for January 16, and transportation of vaccines from manufacturers began on Tuesday, PMC forgot to arrange for the unloading of vaccine doses at its own storage hub, and assigned no staff for the same till late at night.
