We are working closely with the hospitals, corporates and following all Government of India protocols to ensure smooth running of this exercise.”
COVID-19 Vaccination Execution Plan – Current Phase:
While ekincare has listed a few major metro locations to begin with, the list is expected to grow up to 100 in the next phase once diagnostic centers are allowed to. The vaccination can be administered at home (including dependents) or at office premises or at a partner location where ekincare takes care of cold chain logistics and stock management across defined locations altogether.
Also, they ensure availability of family doctors for remote monitoring of health in case of any adverse effects wherein employees can initiate a doctor chat in case of any health issues 24/7.
