Why health worker fatigue needs to be tackled for an effective vaccination drive
After decades now, India is conducting a mass adult vaccination drive for the first time for COVID-19. The last such time was in the 1960s and 1970s during the Smallpox eradication programme. The government health authorities have to plan the COVID-19 vaccination drive while ensuring that the universal immunisation programme for children is not hampered.

He looks after public health planning, monitoring, and evaluation for all public health issues, including COVID-19 See sunoindia.in/privacy-policy for privacy information.
