BHUBANESWAR: As Covid wreaks havoc, Reena Bhoi (42), a daily wage labourer, is in doubt whether she can ever get her first dose of Covid vaccine. She is ignorant about the use of internet, which is required for mandatory online registration on government’s CoWIN portal and subsequent slot booking in the vaccination centres.
Like Bhoi, a large number of people in the state are in dark about the procedures online registration and slot booking.
“I use a smart phone, but only to make and receive phone calls. I don’t know the internet use. Even if I avail the internet facility in my phone, who will help me in registering online and booking vaccination slot for me,” Bhoi asked.
