The first floor of the Balasaheb Thackeray Trauma Centre in Jogeshwari, one of the vaccine centres in the city, saw a much heavier footfall on Thursday as the government allowed people above the age of 45 years to take the anti-COVID shots. 

Nodal Officer Dr Jyoti Oberoi said: “During the previous phase of the vaccination drive, we were averaging 200 jabs per day. However, we have already covered 120 jabs today—and it is only 1 pm right now. This is the phase during which the most number of people will be coming out to get vaccinated.”
