Government looks to involve private sector once vaccine drive expands to 50-plus age group

NEW DELHI: Amid concerns about a fresh rise in Covid-19 cases in many states, home minister Amit Shah on Monday reviewed the situation across the country and asked the health ministry to speed up the vaccination drive in order to control spread of the infection.

As it moves to expand the vaccination process to the 50-plus age group, the Centre is looking to rope in the private sector in a major way to cover a much larger target population of 27 crore people. This will also include those who are below 50 but have serious co-morbidities that put them at higher risk of mortality from the infection.
