Bhubaneswar: The COVID-19 vaccination certificate can now be obtained via WhatsApp within seconds.
In a tweet, Union health minister Mansukh Mandaviya spelt out the three steps to get the vaccination certificate through MyGov Corona Helpdesk:
– Save contact number +91 9013151515
– Type & send ‘covid certificate’ on WhatsApp
– Enter OTP received on your mobile phone
Senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor, who earlier attacked the government over its COVID-19 management, has praised this initiative. “I’ve always acknowledged and praised the government when it merits it. As a critic of Cowin, let me say they’ve done something terrific. Send a WhatsApp message ‘download certificate’ to 9013151515, receive OTP and get your vaccination certificate back by WhatsApp. Simple and fast!” he tweeted.
MyGov Corona Helpdesk, which is a WhatsApp chatbot, was launched by the Centre last year to create awareness about COVID-19 and reduce the spread of misinformation related to the deadly disease.
