In order to achieve the goal of vaccinating all adults in the country by the end of this year, government has introduced booking of vaccine slots on WhatsApp.
Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya tweeted “Paving a new era of citizen convenience. Now, book COVID-19 vaccine slots easily on your phone within minutes.”
“Send ‘Book Slot’ to MyGovIndia Corona Helpdesk on WhatsApp. Verify OTP. Follow the steps,” he further wrote, along with a link.
By following the steps, relevant details can be fetched from CoWIN, the government portal that links every vaccine dose to its recipient.
n another significant move, the government earlier this month had introduced the facility of getting vaccination certificate via WhatsApp. This came as a relief for those trying to get a proof of vaccination with the CoWIN platform reporting glitches on some occasions. Amid concern over a third Covid wave, vaccine certificates are being sought for interstate travel, among other things.
“Revolutionising common man’s life using technology! Now get #COVID19 vaccination certificate through MyGov Corona Helpdesk in 3 easy steps. Save contact number: +91 9013151515. Type & send ‘covid certificate’ on WhatsApp. Enter OTP. Get your certificate in seconds,” the Health Minister’s office had tweeted.
