State should seek help from private hospitals, NGOs: Patole
The Maharashtra Congress on Wednesday appealed to Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray to initiate door-to-door vaccination against COVID-19 in the State. In a letter to Mr. Thackeray, State Congress president Nana Patole wrote, “All citizens above 18 years will be eligible for vaccination from May 1. This will pose the danger of the virus spreading due to crowds at vaccination centres.” Mr. Patole added that universal vaccination has proved to be an effective measure against COVID-19. “Maharashtra has undertaken a massive vaccination drive, but due to strict restrictions, beneficiaries are facing difficulties in reaching the vaccination centres. In rural areas, people are suffering because of fewer vaccination centres, which are situated at distant locations.”
