The security guard, aged in his 20s was administered a shot of COVAXIN and developed an allergic skin reaction within 15-20 minutes of his inoculation. He was then immediately taken into observation at the facility. 

He was immediately managed with appropriate treatment and he improved. He is stable. As a precautionary measure he has been admitted for overnight observation and his condition is being monitored. He is likely to be discharged in the morning, AIIMS Director Randeep Guleria told PTI. 

One severe? and 51 minor? cases of AEFI (adverse events following immunisation) were reported among healthcare workers who were administered the coronavirus vaccine in Delhi on the first day of the COVID-19 vaccination drive on Saturday, official figures showed.

Billed as the world’s largest vaccination program, a total of 3006 session sites across all states and union territories were connected virtually during the launch of the vaccine. In its first drive, the programme aimed to first inoculate millions of its healthcare and frontline workers and reach an estimated 3 crore people by the end of its first phase.
