These vaccines are being currently used under the Covid19  vaccination  programme  in  India.  In  addition,  Moderna  vaccine  has  also  been  granted permission by the National Regulator.

The details of total number of people vaccinated above 45 years of age and between 18-44 years of age is at Annexure-1 and 2 respectively.

As on 2nd August 2021, a total of 3.65 crore people (including HCWs and FLWs) have been administered the 1st dose of Covaxin and 1.96 crore people have been administered the 2nd dose. Not all the beneficiaries who have received the first dose have become eligible for receiving the second dose.

The  Government  of  India  regularly  reviews  the  progress  of  National  COVID-19  Vaccination Programme with all States/UTs. Government of India is also providing 15 days advance visibility of COVID-19 vaccines availability to States/UTs with an advice to prepare and publicize in advance District-wise  &  CVC-wise  plan  for  accelerating  the  coverage  of  COVID-19  vaccination  and  for maximizing the convenience of citizens. States/UTs have been advised to prioritize the vaccination for  those  whose  2nd  dose  is  due.  States  have  been  advised  that  completion  of  both  doses  is significant  from  the  point  of  view  of  not  only  pandemic  management  but  also  to  afford  full protection to the beneficiaries. Following measures are suggested to States/UTs for increasing the coverage of 2nd dose:

-  Utilize the advance visibility/information of vaccine supplies for efficient planning of prioritizing the second dose coverage.
-  Undertake regular review of beneficiaries due for 2 nd dose  &  direct  the  concerned  officials  to focus on timely completion of their vaccine schedule
-  Earmark certain  percentage  of  monthly  vaccine  allocation  for  the  2 nd dose  or  earmark  certain days or specified time period during the day for the 2 nd dose administration at each COVID-19 vaccination center.
-  Establishing  separate  queues  for  1 st and  2 nd dose  beneficiaries  at  the  COVID-19  Vaccination centers
-  Mounting a special IEC campaign to sensitize beneficiaries about the need and significance of getting the 2 nd dose, thus increasing the acceptance and demand for the same.
