The Delhi government has sternly ordered all the city school heads to keep an updated Google Tracker data of inoculated students without any laxity. As the vaccination drive commences for the 15 to 18 age group children in the country, the capital city inoculated over 20,900 teenagers with the first dose on Monday.
As per the reports from the Health Department, Delhi recorded 4,099 Covid new cases on Monday with a positivity rate of 6.46 percent. The Directorate of Education (DoE) has issued an order that all school principals and class teachers must upload the vaccination record of students in the Google Tracker by 4 pm daily without fail.
The school authority should ensure that children’s parents are told to visit with their children to the nearest vaccination centre designated for children vaccination of age group 15-18. They must also coordinate with the district health officer, if school is not a Covid vaccination centre to facilitate the required space in the school, provide staff for queue management, position a team to verify the data and proper internet connectivity.
