Private hospitals have a quota of 25 per cent vaccine of the total vaccines produced by the manufacturers after the Centre procures the 75% of it. Prior registration on Co-Win is not mandatory for private hospitals as the government has allowed private hospitals to accept on-spot registration. For vaccination availability in any nearby private hospital, one can check the Co-Win site as private hospitals have to register on Co-Win. If you are getting vaccinated at housing societies where the vaccine is to be supplied from a private hospital, check if the private hospital is registered on Co-Win. To verify the vaccine certificate, go to verify.cowin.gov.in and scan the QR code of the vaccination certificate on this site.
