A primary health centre is supposed to be the first place you turn to for medical assistance in rural India, and a health sub-centre is the bridge connecting a village to the PHC.
At Pahadi-Paragon village’s sub-centre in #Maharashtra’s Beed district, an empty, worn-down room without medical staff to attend patients, is supposed to function as a #Covid #vaccination facility for a population of 1,800. The villagers say the nurse posted at the sub-centre doesn’t visit regularly. The last time she visited was when vaccination took place for about 40 people in the month of May.
