Data sought from Education Department on school children eligible for vaccination
Health Minister Veena George on Monday expressed confidence that the COVID-19 vaccination for the 15-18 age group can be completed in a time-bound manner.
The Minister was speaking after visiting the vaccination centre at the General Hospital, Thiruvananthapuram, on the first day of inoculation for the age group.

The Union and State governments provided support in several ways to the needy people, but private institutions should also extend help, especially to those requiring medical assistance, said C.P. Rajkumar, Managing Director, Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, here on Saturday. Speaking at a function to honour Inspector General of Police V. Balakrishnan and neurologist S. Meenakshisundaram with C. Palaniappan Memorial Award for their contribution to society and Nalam Kappom medical adoption of Type-1 diabetic children, he said the governments implemented numerous welfare programmes, but the timely help by a private hospital or a doctor in the neighbourhood to the people in need would go a long way in safeguarding their lives.
