Registration for the coronavirus vaccine in the country can only be done via official government sources. One can either go to the Cowin website or use Aarogya Setu/UMANG apps to register for the vaccine. Users can register themselves on these government portals using their mobile numbers. While booking an appointment, they need to keep a government ID proof like an Aadhaar card and PAN card handy. A user can book appointments for up to 4 people using one mobile number.
Recently, the government launched a vaccine centre location tracking facility via its MyGovCorona helpdesk on WhatsApp. One needs to simply type ‘Namaste’ at 9013151515 on WhatsApp. The chatbot will generate an automated response. To locate the nearest covid vaccination centre, one will have to type in the six-digit PIN code.
