Vaccination drive of industrial workers yet to be held in Mysuru
The Hindu
It would take some more time as focus now was on college students
The proposed vaccination drive of industrial workforce in the age group of 18 to 44 years to enable smooth and unhindered production in the manufacturing units is yet to get started in Mysuru. This has been attributed to vaccine shortage and the current thrust on vaccinating college students. Though such camps have been conducted in other parts of the State including industrial areas in Bengaluru, not a single day’s camp has been conducted by the authorities in Mysuru so far. However, major industrial houses have conducted their own drive at their cost to get their workers vaccinated on their respective factory premises. But Suresh Kumar Jain, General Secretary, Mysuru Industries Association, said more than 75 per cent of the industrial units in Mysuru are categorised under MSMEs and would not have funds to get their employees vaccinated. It is different in the case of larger industries and many have conducted the drive at the company’s cost, he added.
