The country is still recovering from the devastation made by the ongoing second wave of coronavirus and experts have already warned the authorities about the inevitable third wave ofcoronavirus.
The main key to prepare for the third wave is vaccination and thus the Centre is providing free vaccines to people above 18 years in India from June 21, 2021. Besides, walk-in registrationis also facilitated which means now people don’t have to pre-register themselves. They can just walk into the vaccination center and get themselves registered there.
