Tense situ reported at Narahenpita

A tense situation was reported today during a vaccination drive held at the Western Dispensary in Kirula Road, Narahenpita.

Many people gathered at the main gate of the Western Dispensary to get vaccinated with the Oxford-AstraZeneca COVISHIELD vaccine.

Tension prevailed when people walked into the premises were not registered with the Health Ministry. 

The Police officers and health officials explained the procedure of how to get the vaccine. 

But people who gathered at the front gate did not even follow the health guidelines. 

Most of the people who came did not register themselves with the Health Ministry to obtain the vaccine.
