One of the netizens suggested that he should get the vaccine from Kohinoor. The director then asked if he will surely get the vaccine or not because he doesn't want to travel unnecessarily. To which, another netizen replied that he should reach the place by 7:30 in the morning as there is no car parking. They also mentioned that the centre opens at 9:30 am and no pre-registration is required. Check it out.

About COVID-19 vaccination drive in Mumbai 

Earlier, Mumbai suffered a shortage of vaccines which created panic amongst the citizens. As the vaccine is now available for people who are 18 or above, BMC was struggling with so many people turning up for their doses. Recently, the civic body received one lakh COVID vaccine jabs on Tuesday night and it will resume vaccination of people above 45 years at government vaccination centres. On Sunday, BMC had said that vaccination for those aged 45 years and above will be closed on Monday, while vaccination for 18 to 44 years will continue only at five centres. People who have registered in the COWIN app are eligible for the vaccine. On the other hand, BMC also started the drive-in facility wherein specially-abled people and senior citizens will not have to stand in a queue and they will be administered the COVID-19 vaccine doses in their own vehicles.
