The Delhi government announced on Thursday, 21 April, that precautionary dose will be available for free to all eligible beneficiaries of 18 to 59 years age group in all government COVID-19 vaccination centres (CVCs).

The precautionary dose will be administered to those who have completed nine months since their second dose.

The government order, dated 21 April, stated that the same vaccine, which was used for previous vaccine doses, will be administered as the precautionary dose.

Beneficiaries with a verified vaccination certificate can avail the free dose without registering on the Co-WIN app, as per the order.

However, the government order says that the provision of paid precautionary dose in private CVCs will continue to be available.
