Drive-In Vaccination Centre Opens

Mumbai: A first of its kind drive-in vaccination centre started operations in Maharashtra on Tuesday, at a multi-level parking lot.

The facility, located at Kohinoor parking lot on JK Sawant Marg, near Shivaji Park in Dadar West, allows senior citizens and specially-abled citizens to drive though and get COVID-19 vaccine jabs without getting out of the car.

It has two booths, and can accommodate 5,000 people per day. The parking lot has space for 60 to 70 vehicles to queue up.
