With the capacity to vaccinate 1,000 people a day, BMC has set up a vaccination centre close to the slum pockets of Dharavi in Mumbai.

The centre with five booths has been set up at an urban health centre, popularly known as “Chhota Sion Hospital”, to inoculate senior citizens and those aged above 45 years with comorbidities from Dharavi. Currently, the closest government-run centre for Dharavi residents is the Bandra-Kurla-Complex jumbo facility.
