New Delhi: On the CoWIN portal, a user can now add up to six members using a single mobile number, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare announced on Friday.
Earlier, there was a limit of registering a maximum of four members with a single phone number on the CoWIN portal, which keeps track of users’ Covid-19 vaccination.
Meanwhile, a new utility feature has also been introduced to raise an issue in Co-WIN account through which a beneficiary can revoke its current vaccination status from fully vaccinated to partially vaccinated or unvaccinated status and also partially vaccinated to unvaccinated status.
“The vaccination status can be corrected by the beneficiaries, where in occasional isolated cases, the vaccination certificates are generated due to inadvertent data entry errors by the vaccinator in the updation of vaccination data of beneficiaries,” said the Health Ministry.
It also said that the changes may take three to seven days after submitting the online request through raising an issue utility.
“Such beneficiaries can get their due vaccine dose, maybe at nearest vaccination centre, as per the existent standard guidelines once new vaccination status is successfully updated in the system,” it added.
