5 crore teens administered at least 1 dose of Covid vaccine

The coverage of the first dose of Covid vaccination among youngsters crossed five crore in around five weeks from its commencement on January 3, indicating that over 67.5% adolescents of 15-17 years have been partially immunised. The feat assumes significance as most states are resuming offline classes in schools and other educational institutions, while adolescents of 15-17 years age are most vulnerable to risk of severe disease.
