Although the interval between two Covishield shots was extended to 84 days and many have already taken their second dose, the civic body has said that it is still facing a shortage and is far from considering resumption of the drive for those aged between 18 and 44.

Civic officials said that there is a huge population in the age group of 44 to 59 which is yet to be vaccinated. With the number of people qualified for the second dose being less after the extension, it would be concentrating on this group.
