Which of the following organization has developed a new API to enable checking of COVID-19 vaccination status?

A. Aarogya Setu

B. Co-WIN

C. AIIMS

D. ICMR

EXPLANATION

Co-WIN has developed a new Application programming interface called ‘Know Your Customer’s or Client’s Vaccination Status (KYC-VS). This will enable entities to check an individual’s status of vaccination through CoWIN. To use this API, an individual needs to enter his/her mobile number and name. Thereafter, they will get an OTP which they have to enter. In return, Co-WIN will send a response to the verifying entity on the individual’s status of vaccination. CoWIN (Covid Vaccine Intelligence Work) is an Indian government web portal for COVID-19 vaccination registration, owned and operated by India’s Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.
