CoWIN, India's COVID-19 vaccine delivery tech platform, will accept the school IDs of children eligible for vaccination starting January 3, 2022, top executive RS Sharma said, adding that the system will be able to configure changes easily if the government decides to mix vaccines for a proposed booster dose. "Anybody who is born in 2007 or before will be able to get vaccines. Children aged between 15-18 do not have voter ID cards and many of them may not have Aadhaar too, so we are now allowing school certificates and ID cards. There are currently 9 eligible documents to register on CoWIN, we will add school ID cards to this," Sharma said.
