“We have received 64,460 doses of the vaccine from the SII in Pune. (Some) Doses were dispatched to Jalna, Hingoli and Parbhani from Aurangabad,” he said, adding that a refrigerated van has left for Latur.

The vaccine doses were stored at Aurangabad’s Health and Family Welfare department’s building.
