Delhi To Set Up 1,000 Booths For Vaccinating "Up To 1 Lakh People Daily"

The national capital is gearing up for the novel coronavirus vaccination drive and plans to set up 1,000 booths across the city where up to 1 lakh people could get vaccinated daily in phase one, a member of the state government's COVID-19 taskforce said on Monday. "Maximum daily capacity would be up to 1 lakh per day - 100 people per booth. But it is important to note that if 80 out of the 100 registered in the Co-Win app for a particular day turn up, then only they will be vaccinated. We can't replace the absentees with other people. Each person will receive an SMS with date, time and place and those rules have to be followed," Dr Suneela Garg, a member of Delhi's COVID-19 vaccination taskforce and an advisor to the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), told NDTV.
