Mumbai: BMC centres start running out of vaccines again
Updated On: 17 April, 2021 07:08 AM IST | Mumbai | Chetna Sadadekar
At Kandivli’s Shatabdi, authorities will allow only those with appointment; BMC says it aims to continue vaccination drive in two shifts at a few centres

The stock of vaccines at the Bharatratna Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Municipal General Hospital, also known as Shatabdi Hospital, Kandivli, ran out after a week on Friday.
Could this be the start of another vaccination shortage nightmare for the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation just like last week? The civic body was short of vaccines last week due to which it had to halt the drive at private vaccination centres for two days and various civic-run hospitals for a day. At Shatabdi now, there are plans to allow vaccinations only for those with prior appointment.
