New CoWin API update may be ‘bad news’ for vaccine tracker websites and you too

The government has issued a new update to Co-WIN Public API which will make cache appointment availability data to up to 30 minutes. This means if you use any third-party trackers to check real-time availability of a vaccine slot then you will see old results. Given the rush to book a slot, a 30 minute delay means missing the shot.
