‘Door-to-door vaccination not feasible’

11.05.2021 

Vaccine production in India will be ramped up to more than 13 crore doses per month by the end of July, the Centre told the SC while negating the court’s suggestions for door-to-door vaccination under the national immunisation scheme as unsuitable for Covid-19 inoculation.

The Centre pointed out that the vaccine is required to be maintained at a particular temperature and the person vaccinated is required to be kept under observation for 30 minutes. Moreover, vaccinators would have to open the vaccine vial box repeatedly, affecting maintenance of temperature and efficacy of the vaccines.
