COVID-19 vaccination in India is picking pace. The country has so far administered over 24.5 crore individuals with the COVID-19 vaccine. However, there is a long way to go for the country with a population of over 1.3 billion. Users above 18 years of age are required to register and book slots to get the COVID vaccine jab on the CoWin website. They can book their slot on the government’s platform. However, slots get booked within seconds. A new report claims that the likes of PayTM, Infosys and MakeMyTrip are seeking approval to provide online COVID 19 vaccine bookings. R S Sharma, head of the government’s panel managing the CoWin vaccination registration platform, told Reuters that around 15 state agencies and private companies are seeking approval to offer vaccine booking.
