The MyGov chatbot on WhatsApp has got new features. Initially, the users were allowed to download vaccination certification just by sending a message to the MyGov helpdesk. After this, the MyGov chatbot allows users to book the Covid-19 vaccination slot through WhatsApp simply by sending “Book Slot” to the MyGov WhatsApp number.
