Find vaccination centres near you via WhatsApp: Here's how

The Covid-19 surge in India is reaching disturbing proportions. And one of the key weapons to fight the viral spread is by speeding up the vaccination drive. India has opened up the vaccination process for everyone above the age of 18. The government-run central CoWIN portal is the nodal point for registering for vaccine and book appointment slots. The portal provides a list of nearby vaccination centres. But as there had been some technical glitches due to crores of users logging in simultaneously, the government is now adding WhatsApp-backed MyGov Corona Helpdesk chatbot to help people search for vaccination centres in their locality.


The chatbot, launched last year, is now updated to help users in finding the closest vaccination centre.
