Covid vaccination drive dry-run: Health minister briefs officials in Delhi

Ahead of the dry-run for the COVID-19 vaccine in the national capital, Union Health Minister Harsh Vardhan on Friday held a review meeting with the Delhi government officials for the preparations of the mock drill, which is scheduled for January 2.

The minister was speaking to the Delhi government officials via video-conference.

He said the procedure of the vaccination drive is similar to the election preparations.

"The procedure of the vaccination drive is the same as the election.

In any election, we train people at the booth the same way.

We need more manpower so we have to train the people here who can look after the proposed beneficiaries," Vardhan said.
