Many government-run vaccination centres in Delhi will be closed on Tuesday because the city has exhausted its Covishield Covid-19 vaccine stock, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said.
Raising the issue of shortage of Covid vaccines in the city, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia tweeted, "Vaccines have run out in Delhi again. The central government gives vaccines for a day or two, then we have to keep the vaccine centres closed for several days."
"Why is our country's vaccine programme faltering even after so many days?" he added.
The national capital had 19,000 doses of Covishield and 2,39,000 doses of Covaxin on Monday morning.
