Non-stop vaccination camp at Villianur PHC

‘The second wave of the pandemic wass fairly under control in the UT, there had been a slight increase in number of cases in proportion with the higher test numbers’

Lt. Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan on Friday sought the cooperation of the public in achieving 100% vaccination against COVID-19 in the Union Territory. Inaugurating a 48-hour, non-stop vaccination camp at the Villianur Primary Health Centre, Ms. Soundararajan said though the second wave of the pandemic was fairly under control in the UT, there had been a slight increase in number of cases in proportion with the higher test numbers. Stressing the importance of sustaining vigil and adopting inoculation as a measure of protection from the coronavirus, the Lt. Governor pointed to the various programmes of the health department to make it simpler for people to take their jab. As a result of measure such as night-time vaccination and street corner session sites, at least 48 villages in the UT had become fully vaccinated.
