New Delhi, March 14: India will begin vaccinating children aged 12 to 14 years old on March 16 as part of an expansion of its COVID-19 vaccination programme, according to Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya.

The requirement of co-morbidity for persons aged 60 and up to receive a preventive dose will be eliminated as well. Booster injections are now available to everyone in that age group.

“Union Government after due deliberations with scientific bodies has decided to start COVID19 vaccination for 12-13 yr and 13-14 yr age groups (those born in 2008, 2009 and 2010. i.e those who are already above 12 years of age) of the population from 16th March 2022,” the health ministry said in a statement.

Corbevax, made by Biological Evans in Hyderabad, would be used to give the COVID-19 vaccine.

“If the children are safe then the country is safe! I am happy to inform you that the COVID-19 vaccination of children in the age group of 12 to 13 and 13 to 14 is starting from March 16. Also, everyone aged 60+ will now be able to get precaution doses,” said the minister, tweeting the announcement in Hindi.

बच्चे सुरक्षित तो देश सुरक्षित!

मुझे बताते हुए खुशी है की 16 मार्च से 12 से 13 व 13 से 14 आयुवर्ग के बच्चों का कोविड टीकाकरण शुरू हो रहा है।

साथ ही 60+ आयु के सभी लोग अब प्रिकॉशन डोज लगवा पाएँगे।

मेरा बच्चों के परिजनों व 60+ आयुवर्ग के लोगों से आग्रह है की वैक्सीन जरूर लगवाएँ।

He also urged the families of children and people in the age group of 60+ to get vaccinated.
