Credit for 100 crore vaccination milestone goes to PM Narendra Modi, health staff: UP CM Yogi Adityanath

LUCKNOW: Stating that the 100 crore vaccination doses mark was surely a great reason to celebrate, chief minister Yogi Adityanath on Thursday said that achieving the milestone couldn't have been possible without two crucial elements.

"The 100-crore vaccine milestone is a combined result of PM Modi's 'Skilled Leadership' and determined efforts of 'Committed Health Workers'," he said while meeting health workers and beneficiaries at a Covid-19 vaccination centre set up at Saraswati Shishu Mandir in the state capital.

The CM added that the role of responsible citizens turned the vision into reality. Congratulating all health workers and frontline workers on achieving 100 crore jabs, the CM reiterated that vaccination and Covid-19 prevention protocols were the only keys to stay ahead of the pandemic virus.

He also appealed to people of the state to stay extra cautious during the festive season to ensure individual safety and contribute towards the well-being of all.

"The Covid-19 vaccine is the shot of life and it is a matter of great pride that UP has been able to make the biggest contribution in India's vaccine century," the CM said.
