Union Health Ministry has asked Madhya Pradesh, along with some other states including Maharashtra, Punjab, Jammu and Kashmir and Chhattisgarh to expedite the vaccination of healthcare and frontline workers so as to confer immunity in the shortest possible time-frame in the wake of a rising trend of COVID-19 cases and positivity rate in some districts.
In a letter to the Madhya Pradesh Government, the Centre has advised the state to speed up vaccination in the state particularly in three districts Indore, Bhopal and Betul.
