India has achieved a historic milestone by completing COVID-19 vaccination for all eligible adults in the country. The massive vaccination drive has administered over 200 crore vaccine doses, making it one of the world's most successful immunization programs.
The achievement comes after a coordinated effort involving healthcare workers, volunteers, and technology platforms. The CoWIN platform facilitated seamless registration and appointment booking for millions of citizens.
Rural areas, which initially lagged in vaccination coverage, have now achieved parity with urban areas through targeted outreach programs. Mobile vaccination units and special camps ensured no eligible person was left behind.
The success of the vaccination program has contributed to a significant decline in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations. India is now focusing on booster doses and pediatric vaccination to maintain immunity levels.
