NEW DELHI: In a move aimed at increasing the coverage of vaccination as the country is witnessing an explosive surge in new Covid-19 cases, the government has decided to allow Covid vaccination at workplaces that have around 100 eligible and willing beneficiaries from April 11 onwards and the states/UTs have been asked to make adequate preparations in this regard.
According to the guidelines issued by the Union Health ministry, the Covid-19 vaccination sessions may now be organised at workplaces (both public and private) which are having about 100 eligible and willing beneficiaries by tagging these workplaces with an existing COVID Vaccination Centre (CVC).
At these extended vaccination centres, only employees of workplace aged 45 years or more will be eligible for vaccination and no outsiders, including eligible family members, will be allowed.
However, the vaccination at the government workplace will be free of cost while that at the private units will cost Rs 250 to every eligible beneficiary for every dose.
