Open grounds in Karachi are to be converted into drive through vaccination centres, announced Sindh government.
“The chief minister has directed the deputy commissioners to setup drive-thru vaccination centres in open grounds where lighting arrangements are available,” said the sources, adding both deputy commissioners and health department are now examining grounds for the purpose as they have been tasked to complete the process in 48 hours.
Districts Korangi, South, Central, East, Malir, Kemari, and West will have their open ground vaccination centres where citizens can have their jabs in vehicles, said the sources.
Earlier on Monday, Sindh government spokesman Murtaza Wahab shared data showing that 25 percent of the Karachi population over the age of 18-year-old has been vaccinated against COVID-19 in his twitter handle.
