Mumbai, which has the highest number of active Covid-19 cases in the state at present, has run out of vaccines. As of April 3, none of the Central, state and BMC-run Covid vaccination centres across the city is active. If sources are to be believed, even the state health department’s stock has dried up.

Amid the surge in Covid-19, the state government has directed the BMC health department to focus on testing, tracking, treatment and vaccination. The city last received around 30,000 doses of Covaxin in September-October, which are depleted.
