The Kolkata Municipal Corporation (KMC) will soon start visiting old and ailing residents of the city to vaccinate them, its chief Firhad Hakim said.
Many Kolkata residents, who are above 80 years, and those over 60 years and have serious illness, could not travel to COVID vaccination centres, he said.
These people will be considered for vaccination during the special drive, he added.
Hakim said civic health workers would visit the residences of such persons only if all other family members are vaccinated.
