Meanwhile, the vaccination for the age group of 18-44 has been stopped due to unavailability of doses, Maharashtra Health Minister Rajesh Tope announced on Wednesday. "We don't want to stop, but right now we have no vaccines, so we will be giving vaccines right now to 45+ only," Tope said.
The Minister said that Serum Institute of India CEO Adar Poonawalla has promised CM Uddhav Thackeray to deliver 1.5 crore doses of Covishield to Maharashtra after May 20. "We will start the vaccination for 18-44 age group after we receive the vaccine," added Tope.
