Prime Minister Narendra Modi had announced that the COVID-19 vaccination drive for children aged between 15 to 18 years will commence from January 3, 2022. The registration for these children is set to begin on the CoWIN app from January 1, 2022.

An official source further confirmed, “Bharat Biotech’s Covaxin is the only COVID-19 vaccine which will be administered, for now, to children in the age group of 15-18 years who will be inoculated from January 3. The estimated population to be covered in this category is seven to eight crores.”
