All Aarogya Setu users will get the option that says “Update the Vaccination Status” if they have not taken the revised self-assessment. After completing the self-assessment, if you had taken at least one dose, then you will get the tab of “partially vaccination/vaccinated (unverified)” on the home screen of Aarogya Setu.
We hope this feature sets the precedence for many more features to help Indians living across the country to get their vaccination sorted. Currently India has 17,93,645 active COVID cases and has so far vaccinated 21,85,46,667 people. However, some people are concerned that the rural population may not be totally equipped to use the Aarogya Setu app. Do let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
