Odisha to take a day off from vaccination drive to observe recipients

Odisha Additional Chief Secretary (Health) said that there will be no COVID-19 vaccination drive on January 17 as the administration wants to observe the people who took vaccines today.

Today is the inaugural day of nationwide roll-out of vaccination.

Billed as the world's largest vaccination programme, covering the entire length and breadth of the country, the drive aims to first inoculate millions of its healthcare and frontline workers and reach an estimated 3 crore people by the end of its first phase.
