3,030 healthcare personnel were inoculated on the second day of the drive
A total of 3,030 healthcare personnel were vaccinated on the second day of the drive on Sunday to protect the front-line workers from COVID-19. While 183 persons received Covaxin, 2,847 received Covishield.
The government said it had the capacity to administer 14,460 doses a day across the 45 sites. In Chennai, which has the capacity to administer 1,200 doses a day, only 402 persons volunteered to be vaccinated.
Across the six government medical college hospitals in the State, where Covaxin was being offered, the willingness to be inoculated was yet to pick up, though it appeared to be better than Saturday.
