PANAJI: The state’s population in the 18-45 year category will have to wait longer to get inoculated as the government is yet to procure vaccines for the new age group. However, vaccination of those who are 45 years and above will continue with the central government quota.
Chief minister Pramod Sawant on Friday told reporters that they haven’t got the stock yet and that vaccination for the 18-45 age group will not be rolled out from May 1.
The vaccination of the new category of beneficiaries, Sawant said, “Will begin as and when the state receives the doses from the manufacturer. Do not rush to the vaccination centres on May 1.”
