Only 19,602 doses administered across all age groups in govt. hospitals and PHCs on Saturday in view of vaccine shortage
With mixed messages on vaccine availability from the State government, 40-year-old Raju S. was not sure if he would actually get his first shot when he decided to visit a vaccination camp organised by the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) at Medahalli Government School, near K.R. Puram, on Saturday. But when he arrived, he found only around 10 people waiting in line to get their first shot of the COVID-19 vaccine. With no one in the above 45 years category, the staff at the camp decided to vaccinate him and others who fell in the 18 to 44 years category
