Thane: In a shocking case of negligence, a resident of Thane was administered three doses of COVID-19 vaccine back-to-back on the same day.

The incident only came to light when she panicked and narrated it to her husband, who then informed officials.
An official from the Thane Municipal Corporation stated that the incident is a case of negligence by the vaccination centre staff. The woman was not aware of the vaccination process, so she did not even object at the time. She has been checked by our senior doctors and is completely fine now, he said.
