Bengaluru: The Bengaluru Apartments’ Federation paused community vaccination camps being held at apartment complexes in Bengaluru due to the shortfall of stocks in vaccines across the state.

“On the vaccination front, it is expected that the current shortfall of stocks would be replenished by mid-May. Hence the availability of vaccines for the 18+ (age) category is only expected to kick in by then,” a communication from the Bangalore Apartments’ Federation (BAF) on Tuesday mentioned.

However, it clarified that people in the 45+ age category, who have scheduled to take their second jabs, would get the same only after confirming online bookings.

“Walk-ins will not be supported. On account of this BAF would temporarily pause the community vaccination camps previously being facilitated. We will resume the same when clarity on vaccine supplies emerges,” the clarification added.
