New Delhi, <keyword id="45395" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Google-India">Google India</keyword> on Friday said it is working with the <keyword id="83655" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Union-health-ministry">Union Health Ministry</keyword> and the Bill and <keyword id="142497" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Melinda-Gates-Foundation">Melinda Gates Foundation</keyword> to accurately surface the information on vaccination centres on Search, Maps and Assistant. The search engine giant said that it expects to roll out information on vaccination centres in the coming weeks. So far, 2.6 crore doses of corona vaccine have been administered in the country since the drive began on January 16 after approval for 'Covishield' and 'Covaxin'. "As Covid-19 continues to challenge our communities, we remain committed to doing all we can to assist the country's health agencies at this key juncture of the pandemic, where the successful rollout of these large-scale vaccinations can help us collectively turn a corner and see a much-needed return to normalcy," Google India said in a statement. The company said it has been working closely with the Rapid Risk Response team at the Union Health Ministry that is tracking misinformation using social media listening tools across region and languages, and countering it with science-based messaging on vaccines and pandemic response overall. As the government activates the processes involved in implementing large-scale vaccinations against Covid-19, Google India has put in efforts to surface authoritative and timely information for people asking vaccine-related questions. "We have worked with the <keyword id="1388549" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Ministry-of-Health-Family-Welfare">Ministry of Health &amp; Family Welfare</keyword> (MoHFW) and the <keyword id="166999" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Bill-Melinda-Gates-Foundation">Bill &amp; Melinda Gates Foundation</keyword> to amplify this science-based narrative around vaccination drive," Google India said. Shortly after the first phase of vaccinations commenced, the company rolled out knowledge panels in Google Search that show up for queries relating to the Covid vaccine. These panels provide consolidated information such as details on the two vaccines, effectiveness, safety, distribution, side effects, and more, and is available in English and eight Indian languages -- Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, and Hindi. This information is sourced from MoHFW, and provides answers to commonly asked questions, displays real-time statistics around vaccinations completed, and provides links to the MoHFW website for additional local resources.

The <keyword id="6356172" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Maharashtra-government">Maharashtra government</keyword> has allowed all COVID-19 <keyword id="54639" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="20" keywordseo="vaccination">vaccination</keyword> centres in the state to operate round-the-clock if they have adequate staff, to speed up the immunisation drive in the state. So far, 21.25 lakh people have been inoculated against the viral infection in the state, a health official said on Thursday. "At present, it is an in-principle nod (for operating round-the-clock). It is up to the medical facilities, depending upon the availability of staff, to decide on the number of hours to carry out the vaccination," state health departments principal secretary Dr <keyword id="468728" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Pradeep-Vyas">Pradeep Vyas</keyword> said. Currently, medical staff, frontline workers as designated by the government, people above 60 years of age and those between aged between 45 and 59 with co-morbidities are eligible to get the vaccine shots. The state government wants to speed up the vaccination process to cover the eligible population, said another health official. The state is also adding more vaccination centres in the state. A number of private hospitals have also been roped in for the inoculation drive. However, health officials are facing the challenge of some people coming up with fake medical certificates to show they are eligible for taking the vaccine. "We found some people in their late 40s who came up with fake medical certificates of co-morbidities to get the vaccine. When we asked them to describe their illness, we found they were lying. It is unfortunate," a health official from the <keyword id="53938" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Brihanmumbai-Municipal-Corporation">Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation</keyword> said. This was affecting other eligible people from getting vaccinated in time, the official said. ND GK GK
