Mangaluru: On Thursday December 23, Deputy Commissioner (DC) Dr. Rajendra K.V. has informed that more than 1,15,000 people had not received the first dose of Covid vaccination and that around 16 lakh people have been vaccinated against Covid – 19 in the district.

Speaking to mediapersons at the Deputy Commissioner’s office here he urged people to get vaccinated in the emergent situation of Omicron spread in the district.

“Some people in the community are reluctant to get vaccines. Through clerics, Gram Panchayat members, and legislators, steps are being taken to raise awareness and persuade such people,” he said.

“Although the positivity rate in the district is low, the public should take appropriate measure to avoid the virus from spreading during festivals, other celebrations, or public gatherings,” he added.
