With the introduction of Covid-19 Vaccine Tracker on the Union Health Ministry website, vaccine coverage across India can easily be tracked in real time, Indian Council of Medical Research Director General Balram Bhargava said on Thursday. "The Covid tracker will give week by week data on the Health Ministry`s website about the percentage of double and single doses of Covid-19 vaccine being administered across India," he said at a press conference on actions taken, preparedness and updates on Covid-19.

The tracker will be added to the website soon, he added. While the percentage of double and single dose data will be indicated through green and blue line, respectively, the figure of unvaccinated population will be depicted through red. Highlighting the effectiveness of the vaccine, the ICMR chief said that the percentage of fatality amongst those who have taken both the doses of vaccine is 0, whereas of those with single dose is 1-2 per cent only.
