The Google Doodle is a highlight on the search engine homepage with animation to gain attention. When you click on it, the Doodle takes you to the results that the animation describes. Here it shows the alphabets G, O, O, G, L and E wearing face masks and displaying bandaids on their arms. Which means receiving the vaccine dose. And by clicking on it, it will take you to the search related to vaccination. It gave links to a site on steps to prevent COVID-19 transmission and another site on COVID-19 vaccines.

Since last year, when the pandemic began, Google has advertised several coronavirus-theme doodles.

Moreover, the Google Doodle is encouraging people for the COVID-19 vaccine. And is available in countries including the US, UK, Canada, India, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. People can search for ‘covid vaccine near me’ on Google search to find the nearest vaccination hub.

In addition, the new development by Google comes amid the rollout of the COVID-19 vaccination in India for people aged 18 years and above. It is currently going on six states, though others are likely to join, depending on the availability of the vaccines.

COVID-19 vaccination for all adults above 18 years of age started on Saturday in India. States like Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Delhi and Goa will not be able to begin vaccination as they have a shortage of COVID-19 vaccines.

Subsequently, people will get the vaccine sooner or later. This approach of Google is worth praising!
