WhatsApp chatbot by Robin Hood Army launched to help senior citizens with Covid-19 vaccination in India

Robin Hood Army has launched a new initiative on WhatsApp that will connect senior citizens with volunteers for help with the Covid-19 vaccination.

WhatsApp has been put to a range of use during India’s ongoing struggle with Covid-19. In yet another such attempt, the Facebook-owned chat app will now be utilised to help senior citizens in India with the vaccination process against Covid-19. The Robin Hood Army (RHA), a zero funds volunteer organisation, has announced a WhatsApp API number that allows senior citizens to seek support and get connected to a volunteer who can help them with the vaccination process. RHA volunteers aim to help such senior citizens by getting them registered on CoWin for their vaccination. Furthermore, they will help these citizens visit the vaccination centre for their appointment.
