Taking to Twitter to make the announcement, Asad Umar said that over 383,000 people received Covid jabs on Saturday, setting a new record of most vaccinations in a day.
“So far seven million people have been vaccinated in the country,” he said while sharing that the number of people getting registered for the vaccination is also increasing day by day.
He said that so far 11.6 million people have registered themselves to receive Covid jabs.
An increase in the number of people getting vaccinated has been witnessed after the National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) decided on Friday to allow walk-in vaccination of citizens above 30 years of age from Saturday.
