WhatsApp has got a new chatbot called “Ask Raksha” in India for users to get access to genuine health information. The bot, which is a way of celebrating World Health Day today, has been introduced by THIP Media. It is the media division of The Healthy Indian Project and is a fact-checking body for health-related information. Here’s how to use the new WhatsApp bot.
The Raksha bot, which is short for Readily Accessible Knowledge and Support for Health Action, will help people find answers to numerous health-related queries and even fact-check health topics so that they are not misinformed. It is based on the WhatsApp Business platform.
This comes in addition to the recently introduced “Bol Behen” chatbot, which allows young women in India to get information on their health and sexual wellbeing. This bot can be accessed by sending “Hi” to +91-7304496601.
