Health ministry launches website for vaccine registration in Western Province
COLOMBO- Sri Lanka’s health ministry has launched a website for Western Province residents to register for COVID-19 vaccination.
Residents are invited to register at: https://vaccine.covid19.gov.lk./sign-in
A mobile number must be entered to register and only residents of Grama Niladari divisions in the Western province (Colombo, Gampaha and Kalutara districts) can register.
“If you are not a resident of this Grama Niladari area or if you are not a registered citizen in this Grama Niladari area, you will not be eligible for vaccination at this centre. In case your NIC (national identity card) residential address is not within this Grama Niladari area, you will be required to provide a billing proof to prove your residency in that Grama Niladari area,” the site notes.
However, when a staff writer tried to register via the website, it did not work.
