Vaccine availability

Cowin Vaccine Tracker

Python API wrapper for vaccine availability by Pincode, DistrictId for 1 week and get detailed list of all states, Districts.

India's digital platform launched by the govt. to help citizens register themselves for the vaccination drive by booking an appointment at the nearby available vaccination centres.

from cowinapi_by_ishaan import FetchData

cowin = FetchData()

states = cowin.get_states_table()
print(states)
