MUMBAI: At its maximum capacity, the city’s major
private hospitals will manage to vaccinate between 7,000 and 8,000 people in a day, which means public centres will have to shoulder most of the vaccination burden. On Thursday, 13 private hospitals joined the programme out of 29 that have been granted permission by the Centre. The number is expected to rise to 35.
While
Mumbai’s daily vaccination turnout has been rising steadily, it needs to increase manifold,
BMC officials said. The city was vaccinating 11,000-12,000 every day till Phase II began on Monday for senior citizens and those above 45 with comorbidities. The numbers have since jumped to 18,566 on Wednesday and 22,975 on Thursday.
