Chennai:27.04.2021

The Times of India, Chennai, from today will start an initiative to provide Covid-19 vaccination to newspaper vendors in the city and its suburbs.

TOI has signed up with a few private medical institutions in this hour of crisis when the city has reported a shortage in availability of vaccines. This is being done because newspaper vendors are the ones who deliver papers to thousands of customers every day through the year. They are a kind of frontline essential services workers.

The drive will start on Tuesday from Tambaram where TOI has tied up with Bharat Medical College which will provide vaccines free of cost to vendors in the southern part of the city.

The next such drive will be in the western part of the city where ACS College in Thiruverkadu will provide free vaccines to vendors in Anna Nagar-Ambattur-Thiruverkadu areas. TOI has also tied up with institutions like Rela Hospital and Balaji Medical College to vaccinate vendors in different parts of the city.
