Recently, the government has also announced that it will start giving the second doses of the vaccines to the frontline workers from February 13.
There is much confusion among the common people regarding whether Aadhaar card is mandatory for registering for the vaccination drive. Ashwini Choubey, Union Minister of State for Health cleared the confusion by informing that Co-WIN portal registration will not require Aadhaar card details.
Recently, in the Lok Sabha, Harsh Vardhan, Health Minister said that the third phase of vaccination will commence from March. In this phase, people aged above 50 years will be considered. Also, those below 50 years but with co-morbities will also be prioritized.
