MANGALURU: Almost 50% of medical college students and staff in Dakshina Kannada district have been vaccinated against Covid-19 since the inoculation programme began. The district is home to more than two dozen medical, dental, Ayurveda and naturopathy colleges.
Health offcials said the response has been “overwhelming”. Dr Ramachandra Bairy, district health officer, said colleges have been actively participating in the drive.
“We have been getting numerous queries from private medical practitioners too, but they will have to wait,” Dr Bairy said. “So far, of 14,000 target overall, 52,381 people have been vaccinated. Anganwadi workers are hesitant for some reason.”
At Kasturba Medical College, about 60% have been vaccinated, said Dr Venkataraya Prabhu, dean. But in some colleges, a majority of beneciaries have also rejected the jab.
