On Saturday, the city saw about 2 200 cases and the recovery rate was 3.5%.
While the Delhi 18-44 vaccination campaign came to a standstill on Saturday, Prime Minister Arvind Kejriwal said if the Delhi vaccination process continued at this time, it would take 30 months to cover all the city's population.
He also wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, suggesting ways to increase vaccine production.
As the city's cases filed, the country's government has been insisting on vaccinations. But with the goods gone for a month, the process is now over. On Saturday, the city saw about 2 260 cases and a positive recovery rate of 3.58%.
According to Kejriwal, when Delhi received 16 lakh drugs in May, it was expected to receive only eight lakhs in June.
“We have been able to vaccinate (carry at least one gun) to 50 people lakh so far. If we have to vaccinate all Delhi people, we need an additional 2.5 crore doses. If we go too low right now, it will take at least 30 months to complete the vaccination. At that time, I don't know how many waves we will see and how many people we will lose… Delhi needs 80 lakh vaccines per month, ”said Kejriwal.
He said vaccination centers would be reopened as soon as more vaccines were available.

He also gave four proposals to the Prime Minister to implement in order to speed up the ongoing vaccination campaign. “Vaccines are the best weapon against Covid. I would like to give four suggestions to the center. Barat Biotech has agreed to share the formula (of Covaxin) with other manufacturers. There are many companies in the country that can produce vaccines. The institution must order, not request, that they start production by fighting, ”he said.
He added that the approval of foreign vaccination vaccines should be issued within 24 hours and the Agency, not the provinces, should negotiate with them.
“The facility must approve all approved foreign drugs within 24 hours and must hold consultations with them. Currently, countries are negotiating with them. Does this look good? Maharashtra fights Haryana and Delhi fights Maharashtra at the international level. Vaccine manufacturers will take the Center seriously and our government can also speak directly to their governments. The size of the order will also be greater at that time, ”said Kejriwal.
Tribes like Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra are already floating in the world's vaccination tenders. Delhi is also floating in the 1 crore vaccine tender, Delhi Deputy Prime Minister Manis Sisodia told Indian Express. The Delhi government, however, has been critical of the Institute's call for countries to negotiate with vaccine manufacturers themselves.
Kejriwal also said that there have been reports of some countries holding more doses of vaccines than are needed for their people. "They should be asked to give India more goals," he wrote in the letter.
CM's final proposal is that foreign vaccination companies be allowed to produce in India.
Kejriwal said he spoke to an elderly woman who asked him to vaccinate her and her son as they were having problems. “She is 65 years old and her son is 35 years old. I told her that she could be vaccinated but her son could not. He said I should take his vaccine and give it to his son as he had to go out to work every day and his levels of exposure were high. People should not be forced to think about these things at a time like this. No mother or father or sister has to face this difficult situation… We have lost so many young people in this wave and it is their goal of the goals that have ended, ”he said.
On Friday, 48 628 people were given a shotgun. As of Saturday morning, Delhi had stockpile of just over 22,000. Before the shortage, Delhi vaccinated more than 1 lakh people a day
