Bengaluru, Dec 22: The Azim Premji Foundation and Salesforce, a customer relationship management player, have entered into a collaboration to introduce VaxIT, an app to help accelerate Covid-19 vaccination in India.

The programme would use VaxIT across 25 states to cover a population of 110 million, who are under over 3500 Primary Healthcare Centers (PHCs) by June 2022.

The VaxIT app, developed on the Salesforce platform for Azim Premji Foundation and its partners, would capture the status of vaccinations to help individuals plan and stay updated on their progress.

VaxIT is available as a mobile app on the Android app store and offers multi-lingual, and offline capabilities said a media statement.

Anurag Behar, CEO, Azim Premji Foundation, said: “Throughout the pandemic, we have organized ourselves to provide a comprehensive response to the situation - addressing healthcare and humanitarian needs - both inextricably tied dimensions of the crisis.''

Arundhati Bhattacharya, CEO and Chairperson, Salesforce India, said, “As we race to deliver one of the largest mass vaccination campaigns in human history, we believe our collaboration with Azim Premji Foundation will help with the safe and equitable distribution of Covid-19 vaccines across India.”
