63 camps held in Kallakurichi
The district administration on Monday organised special COVID-19 vaccination camps for persons with disabilities. About 920 persons were vaccinated in special camps held at 63 venues across the district. District Collector P.N. Sridhar inaugurated the camp at Moorarpalayam near here.
The Union and State governments provided support in several ways to the needy people, but private institutions should also extend help, especially to those requiring medical assistance, said C.P. Rajkumar, Managing Director, Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, here on Saturday. Speaking at a function to honour Inspector General of Police V. Balakrishnan and neurologist S. Meenakshisundaram with C. Palaniappan Memorial Award for their contribution to society and Nalam Kappom medical adoption of Type-1 diabetic children, he said the governments implemented numerous welfare programmes, but the timely help by a private hospital or a doctor in the neighbourhood to the people in need would go a long way in safeguarding their lives.
