Aurangabad, Jan 30:
More people are being vaccinated than the planned capacity at some centres for the past few days in the city. Although, there is a planning of 100 doses daily, around 200 people are being vaccinated.

Only one hospital in the city was giving around 300 doses daily. However, it is reported that more than 100 doses are administered at the other centres now. The administration has to complete the target to administer doses to the health employees by February 15.
On January 27, 135 persons were administered doses at Kranti Chowk centre and 201 at one other centre.
Aurangabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) medical officer Dr Neeta Padalkar said, those who have been registered on the portal have not come for doses while non-registered employees could not be administered doses. Now, permission has been received for the on the spot allocation, she said.
