Karnataka has not received the required vaccine doses yet, said state health minister K Sudhakar on Friday. "We gave orders to Serum Institute, Pune for providing over 1 crore doses.
But the official news is that they are still not prepared to give it to us from tomorrow, as it was scheduled," said Sudhakar. "That is why we are requesting people of Karnataka, especially those above 18 years up to 44 years to refrain from going to hospitals thinking that you may be vaccinated tomorrow," he added.
The minister further reassured people that officials will inform them when a confirmation regarding vaccine delivery is obtained.
