“Special Mission Indradhanush 5.0” Launches Third Phase of Vaccination Drive in Vasai-Virar Municipal Corporation

Vasai-Virar :- The Vasai-Virar Municipal Corporation’s Department of Medical Health is all set to roll out the third phase of its vaccination drive, known as “Special Mission Indradhanush 5.0,” starting from Monday, October 9, 2023. This initiative aims to ensure that no child is left unvaccinated, preventing child mortality and the spread of preventable diseases. Additionally, it aligns with the Central Government’s goal to eradicate Rubella by December 2023.

Under this mission, all districts and municipal corporations in the state have received the “Special Mission Indradhanush 5.0” mandate, starting in August 2023, with a target to complete vaccination by December 2023. This ambitious drive not only seeks to vaccinate all eligible children but also gathers crucial data on maternal immunization.

To streamline the vaccination registration process, the Health Department has introduced the ‘Yuvaan App.’ This mobile application simplifies the vaccination registration for children, making it more accessible for parents. The app provides information about upcoming vaccination schedules, making it convenient for parents to stay updated.

The app requires users to link their Aadhaar card to their mobile number for registration. During the COVID-19 pandemic, citizens received notifications on their mobile phones, and this initiative builds on that experience. Moreover, after vaccination, detailed information regarding the various vaccines administered will be available through the Yuvaan portal.

The Health Department assures that there will be no barriers for beneficiaries from any state or district to avail of vaccination benefits. The portal ensures that vaccination-related information is just a click away for everyone.

The “Special Mission Indradhanush 5.0” has already conducted the first and second phases of the vaccination drive, from August 7 to 12, 2023, and from September 11 to 16, 2023, in the municipal corporation’s jurisdiction.

The third phase is scheduled to run from October 9 to 14, 2023, in the Vasai-Virar Municipal Corporation region. The Health Department encourages all citizens in the municipal corporation area to actively participate and support this vital initiative. Together, they aim to achieve comprehensive vaccination coverage and protect the health of the community.
