The head of the National Health Authority (NHA), R.S. Sharma said on Friday that slots for Corona Vaccination could be booked by calling “1075” across the country. The lack of internet and technology in rural areas for the Corona vaccine is making it difficult for people to book appointments for the vaccine. So people can now book slots for vaccines by calling through all general service centers.
Helping people in rural areas to get vaccinated
Alleging that the Corona vaccination campaign in the villages was being carried out at a slow pace, he said the district officer, district collector, primary health center staff were spreading awareness and helping people in rural areas to get vaccinated. It is generally incorrect to say that villagers are being kept away from vaccinations.
R.S. “45+ people are going straight to the center to register and get the corona vaccine,” Sharma said. This is enough to prove that there is a system even in rural areas. While the problem is in the age group of 18-45 years as the supply of vaccine is low.
The system is completely transparent
The head of the NHA said of Covin that the system is completely transparent. Whether VIP or ordinary citizen, everyone has to provide the same amount of data for vaccination. No one is preferred in this system.
