Dr RS Sharma, Chief Executive Officer of National Health Authority, who also heads the functioning of CoWIN platform, had been quoted as saying: “The elderly population that comes above 60 years of age with co-morbidities is eligible for COVID-19 ‘precautionary doses’, will have to take a medical certificate to take the dose.
