COWIN Vaccine Availability Telegram Notifier

With the initiation of the COVID vaccination drive across India for all 18+ individuals, I wrote a python script which with the help of telegram alerts the user regarding open slots in the vicinity! This script can used for both age group alerts 18-44 and 45+ both.

Check it out!

Prerequisites
