Bangladesh plans to vaccinate 40,000 students a day during the campaign, which will gradually be expanded countrywide, said Health Minister Zahid Maleque. The Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education has completed collecting information about the students from institutions. The data has been added to the vaccination database under the ICT ministry and students are now able to register online. Earlier, on Oct 14, the DSHE asked the educational institutions of Dhaka to send the information of the students by Oct 19. The same instructions were sent to the institutions outside Dhaka on Oct 17, asking them to send the instructions by Oct 23.
