No shortage of Vaccines with States; Centre will continually replenish States’
Supplies

Shri
Rajesh Bhushan, Union Health Secretary and Dr R S Sharma, CEO, National Health
Authority (NHA) and Chairperson, Empowered Group on COVID Vaccination chaired a
high-level meeting through video conference today with Health Secretaries,
State Mission Directors of NHM and State Immunization officers of all States
and UTs to review the status, pace and issues regarding COVID vaccination
across the country as well as the preparations for April 2021 when
vaccination would be extended to all persons above the age of 45. A key
theme underlying the meet was the identification of low vaccine coverage
pockets particularly in districts showing COVID surge and for taking corrective
actions there.
The
following was advised to the States and UTs regarding the vaccination coverage
of Health Care Workers (HCW)s & Front Line Workers (FLW)s:
1.
Ensure that only eligible beneficiaries are registered and
vaccinated under category of HCW and FLW.
2.
Archive incorrect/duplicate entries on CoWIN platform.
3.
Identify pockets of low vaccination coverage – health
facility/professional association/blocks, districts etc., for taking corrective
action.
4.
Saturation of vaccination of these groups on priority.
Regarding
the involvement of Private COVID Vaccination Centres (CVC)s, the States/UTs
were asked to:
1.
Conduct regular reviews of vaccinations at Private CVCs with
respect to their capacity utilization.
2.
Undertake GIS analysis of CVCs to identify need for additional
CVCs within States/UTs.
3.
Address apprehensions of Private CVCs regarding vaccine supply,
guidelines etc proactively.
On
the issue of Vaccine Stocks, the States and UTs were advised to ensure
that:
1.
There is no sedimentation of vaccine stocks at any level of
storage.
2.
Distribution based on consumption to avoid overstocking as well
as under-stocking at Cold Chain Points and CVCs.
3.
Regular review of vaccine stocks and consumption is undertaken
to identify gap areas and address the same.
The
Centre also advised the States and UTs for the following:
1.
Maintain vaccine wastage at less than 1% (present National
Wastage Percentage being 6%).
2.
Regularly review vaccine wastage across all levels to minimize
the same.
3.
Ensure timely utilization of available stocks to avoid expiry of
vaccines without usage.
4.
Timely updating of data of vaccine consumption to be ensured on
CoWIN & eVIN portals.
Dr. R S Sharma assured that
there is no problem in the storage and logistics of vaccines. He re-emphasized
the point that there is no value in conserving vaccines for the second dose and
that States must promptly supply vaccines to all government and private hospitals
where there is a demand.
