In view of the threat of the new variant of Coronavirus, Omicron, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has issued instructions regarding vaccination in the state. Notably, Uttar Pradesh has the highest number of people receiving both doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. Here more than 4.95 crore people have been administered both doses of the vaccine.
Apart from this, 11.16 crore people have taken the first dose of vaccine in the state. This number is more than about 75.71 percent of the population of the state eligible for vaccination. Thus, over 16.11 lakh COVID-19 vaccine doses have been administered in the state. Uttar Pradesh tops the country in COVID-19 testing and vaccination.
CM Yogi directed that concerted efforts are needed to further speed up the Covid-19 vaccination. Door to door survey should be done. He has ordered to prepare a separate list of those who have not received the first dose till now along with a list of those whose second dose has been overdue. He has also asked to contact the handicapped, disabled, destitute and elderly and get them vaccinated. The cooperation of village heads, councillors should be taken from the CMO level, the CM added.
The pandemic is under control in the state with the right implementation of the policy of tracing, testing, treatment and vaccination to protect against COVID-19.
