As all those above the age of 45 will be eligible for COVID-19 vaccination from tomorrow, Suchitra Krishnamoorthi has suggested that vaccine centres should be set up all over the city, just like polling booths during elections. "Speeding up the process of vaccination is a must," the actor-singer posted.

Earlier, Krishnamoorthi had raised concern over Covid-19 vaccines being given to Indian citizens on the basis of their age. She reiterated, everybody willing to be vaccinated should be allotted a slot. "It's silly to not allow everybody to be vaccinated & have age & comorbidity restrictions. Everybody willing to be vaccinated & follow procedure shld be allotted a slot. Only way to prevent #Covid_19 from spreading further & creating a herd immunity," Suchitra tweeted.

In a separate tweet the actress alleged that people who are following the protocol are getting delayed while waiting for their turn, especially in Maharashtra. "So many r doing jugaad, breaking the queue & getting #Covid_19 vaccine anyways. Even showing it off on social media. Its only the honest willing to follow protocol who are bng left behind. #Maharashtra needs to speed up immunizatn procesd asap," she wrote.

Suchitra had recently raised her voice against India exporting vaccines to other countries when a huge amount of population is yet to get the jab. "GOI we want the #COVIDVaccine! Why is so much being sent abroad when so many #indians in #india await their turn to be vaccinated?" the actress had tweeted last month.

Last night, Suchitra also wrote that she won't stop the 'vaccine gyaan' until the entire nation gets vaccinated.
