Beyond Co-WIN platform

Adults below the age of 45 can register for vaccines at government centres, once state governments adopt this feature. The move will help those who do not have access to devices to access Co-WIN.

Following the sign-up, people will need an appointment to receive the vaccine doses, which they can also seek at site if there are spare doses.

To avoid wastage, government centres will be allowed to vaccinate those walking in if they have doses left due to no-show by those with online appointments.

The provision to register on-site will not be available for private vaccination centres, which will need to follow the existing protocol to publish their vaccination schedules in advance.
