On that day, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will inaugurate the vaccination programme, with a nurse of Dhaka's Kurmitola General Hospital set to be the first person to be inoculated.
After completing the registration process, applicants can find out when and where they will be vaccinated through the app.
The COVID-19 vaccine management software developed by the programmers of the ICT Division on their own initiative has been handed over to the health directorate, according to the state minister.
"Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will inaugurate the first immunisation programme on Jan 27. At the same time, we have proposed that the registration app be officially inaugurated by the prime minister. Until then, surokkha.gov.bd cannot be used for registration, nor is the Android app,” said Palak.
“We will not go beyond this app because we have to store all the data together and then it has to be analysed. We will be able to use this data for a lot of things later. We will be able to use this as a role model for future vaccination campaigns. We don't know what the situation will be like later but for now, we will not allow anyone who doesn't register using the app.”
