'There have been several media reports claiming that the data stored in Co-WIN portal has been leaked online.

 

'It is clarified that no data has leaked from Co-WIN portal and the entire data of residents is safe and secure on this digital platform,' the ministry said in a statement.

'It is also clarified that while Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare will enquire into the substance of the news, prima facie the assertion is not correct, as Co-WIN collects neither the address of the person nor the RT-PCR test results for COVID-19 vaccination,' the statement said.
