You can now download your COVID-19 vaccination certificate from WhatsApp. Here, you don’t need to enter your reference ID and you will just be asked to enter OTP and then you will get your vaccine certificate.
Until now, users were only able to download the certificate via Aarogya Setu app. The MyGov Corona Helpdesk chatbot on WhatsApp now lets you download the certificate. This bot was introduced back in March 2020 to help answer COVID-19 related questions and prevent misinformation around the coronavirus pandemic.
