The minister said, excess gathering has been created as unregistered people are coming at the center. The health directorate kept the facility of registration at the vaccination center for the people of remote area who have no smart phones. So far over 10 lakh people have registered to get themselves vaccinated. By this time more than three lakh people were given the vaccine. The decision of stopping spot registration has been taken for smooth operation of vaccination activities.

He said, we have created a beautiful environment for vaccination. But we can see that the number of unregistered people is increasing in the centers. Even the registered people cannot enter at the center. Elderly people are suffering more. Staffs engaged in vaccination activities like physicians and nurses are also suffering. We cannot allow this type of situation. As the registration process is going on successfully and it has reached more than 10 lakh, so we will not perform any spot registration.

Zahid Maleque informed that from now people who would go to the vaccination centers after registration will be given vaccines. It will be informed later whether on spot registration will be needed or not.

He also informed that people’s confusion is getting over to be vaccinated and their eagerness is increasing.
