New Delhi: As Maharashtra follows the 5-level unlock process, a state COVID-19 task force member has advised against unlocking Mumbai unless 70 per cent of the people are vaccinated. In an interview with India Today TV, Dr Shashank Joshi, a COVID-19 task force member in the state, stressed not reopening the commercial capital of India till at least 70 per cent of the population receive the jab. "Unless 70 per cent of the people are vaccinated, it will not be right to do open up the city," he said. When asked whether the local train services should resume, Joshi stated, “We can't think of starting local train services because we are not out of danger yet. We should not repeat the mistake we have made in the first and second waves.”More Related News
