Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Change the image displayed with the shared link to the thumbnail image of the aid package. (Suggestion by @akbandara)

Describe the solution you'd like
Use React Helmet to change the meta tag to use the aidpackage thumbnail as the img.

This might not work for Client rendered React. Might have to use a Server-side framework like Next.JS to get it to load images from remote locations (currently package images are loaded from file-sharing links such as dropbox).

@nipunsampath were you able to try this out?

This 'Sharing Debugger' from the Meta Developer site could also help us figure out what's going on: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/

Closing this since we will not be using something like NextJS for supporting this kind of requirement.
