Abstract

As rightly said, prevention is better than cure. Vaccines have been instrumental in preventing pathogenic infectious diseases for humans, and among seventy infectious diseases, we have only thirty vaccines that help us unreliable. Some basic vaccines have to be taken by every single individual. It will prevent us from getting prone to diseases. The main motive of this project is to provide a virtual platform that gives all the detailed information regarding the vaccines along with the age limit provided through reminder short messages service (SMS) and an email message. It recommends hospitals that provide the required vaccines in their locality. It also shows the availability of COVID-19 vaccines. It also helps the user access the web application in their preferred language to be helpful to understand. It checks the user’s age and matches with the eligibility for the vaccine.
