India COVID-19 vaccine drive starting 16 Jan is world`s largest

India`s Prime Minister Narendra Modi will launch the world`s largest COVID-19 vaccination program on the morning of 16th January through video conferencing. This pan India rollout of COVID-19 vaccination drive will cover the entire length and breadth of India. A total of three thousand and six session sites across all States and Union Territories will be virtually connected during the launch. Around 100 beneficiaries will be vaccinated at each session site on the inaugural day. This vaccination program is based on the principles of priority groups to be vaccinated, and Health Care workers, both in government and private sectors including ICDS workers, will receive the vaccine during this phase. The vaccination program will use Co-WIN, an online digital platform developed by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, This will facilitate real-time information of vaccine stocks, storage temperature, and individualized tracking of beneficiaries for the COVID-19 vaccine. A dedicated 24x7 call center 1075 has also been established for addressing the queries related to the COVID-19 pandemic, vaccine rollout, and Co-WIN software. Adequate doses of both COVISHIELD and COVAXIN have already been delivered across India to all States and UTs with the active support of the Ministry of Civil Aviation.
