COVID vaccination slot booking: How to check COVID vaccine slot availability online

Highlights
  • COVID vaccine slots can be checked online through several third-party portals
  • These portals will notify users when a vaccination slot is available at a centre near them
  • You can then book the COVID vaccine appointment via CoWIN portal or Aarogya Setu and Umang app

COVID vaccination for everyone above 18 years has begun in India. The registration and appointment, as you may know, is online through the government’s CoWIN portal and the Aarogya Setu and Umang apps. If like us, you are also trying to book a COVID vaccine slot via these platforms, you would know how hard it is. Due to the shortage of vaccine stocks in many regions across India, there are limited slots available. What’s worse? The government portals don’t come with an option to notify you when the COVID vaccination slots are available. Thankfully, there are several third-party apps/ websites that will keep track of the COVID vaccine slot availability around you so that you don’t have to check the CoWIN as well as Aarogya Setu and Umang app every now and then. The tools send alerts to users when a COVID vaccination slot is available in a centre near them. Here’s a quick look at some of these apps/ websites and how to use them to check COVID vaccine slot availability.
