Pvt Centers To Let Individuals Select Their Preferred Vaccine From May 1

People, who register to get the COVID-19 vaccine from May 1 in private inoculation centres, can choose their preferred vaccine on the CoWIN platform as well. Moreover, the Health Ministry has instructed private inoculation centres to mention necessary details, including availability of stocks and the price, on the platform. Earlier, registered individuals could only choose the location of the vaccine centre. India currently offers two vaccines - Covishield and Covaxin.
