‘This group of beneficiaries shall be accompanied by their parents’
Nearly 22.78 lakh children aged between 15 and 18 years in Telangana will start getting vaccinated against COVID-19 at various State-run healthcare facilities from Monday. The jabs would be administered at Primary Health Centres (PHCs), Urban PHCs, Community Health Centres (CHCs), Area Hospitals, District Hospitals, and Teaching Hospitals.
Health officials said the vaccines would be given at healthcare facilities as doctors would be present there to ensure safety while immunising the teenagers who belong to “a very sensitive age group”. Besides, corporate hospitals will also be conducting the immunisation drive for the young beneficiaries.
“This group of beneficiaries shall be accompanied by their parents for vaccination for added safety,” said officials.
