Wockhardt Hospital, Nagpur is conducting a Mega Scale vaccination drive on this Sunday (4th July, 2021) in association with Rotary ​Club of Nagpur Elite with an aim to inoculate five thousand beneficiaries.
A recent study has forecasted that the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to hit India around July 15. As predicted by the experts, ramped vaccination strategies can cut COVID cases during 3rd wave peak by 85%.

This Mega drive being organized by the hospital focuses on covering a large number of people in a single day to ramp up the scale of vaccination and to increase population which has received at least first dose of the jab before the forecasted third wave hits.
“We are conducting this drive to cover a huge number of people in a single day. However, at the same time we will also ensure that all the safety norms are followed. The entire drive will happen with a channelized process and maintaining all norms and requirements of social distancingâ€, said Mr. Abhinandan Dastenavar, Centre Head, Wockhardt Hospital. “Emergency medical rooms, doctors, medicines and equipment required will be in place to attend to people in case of any requirementâ€, he added.
