    From past 3 days Iam going early morning at 6.30 for token. But the staff in Wenlock does not give me any token, saying vaccination is given only for 2nd dose. I had the Annexure 1 copy from my school,but still they don't consider it. shame on these staffs who are being vaccinated with public money for free and not ready to vaccinate the tax payers. They are indirectly saying to check in other available places, which means to take in Private Hospitals.
