Corona Vaccine: PM Narendra Modi announced that the COVID-19 vaccination campaign for children between the ages of 15 and 18 in the country will be started in January next year.

The drive will start on January 3, 2022, but registration for the same will start from January 1, 2022. Following this, CoWIN portal will add an additional slot so that students can book appointments for vaccines.

To book their COVID-19 vaccine slot on the CoWIN portal, students will have to use their ID card. This step has been taken so that some students who do not have Aadhaar card can use their ID card for the same. 

In particular, the Government of India has approved Bharat Biotech's Covaxin for the vaccination of children between the ages of 15 and 18.

After completing registration, students will be able to find the vaccine centre from January 3, 2022, and book appointments whenever available. The portal lets students find the nearest vaccine center according to their state, district, or pincode. Also, the portal also allows you to find the nearest vaccine center on Google map.
