Doha: The Ministry of Health has given permission to start giving booster doses to high-risk groups in Qatar from Wednesday, September 15. In the first phase, the booster dose will be given to priority groups such as those who are immunocompromised due to serious illnesses, those over 65 years of age and health workers.
They can receive the booster dose eight months after receiving the second dose of the vaccine. The ministry recommended that the booster dose be taken within 12 months. Currently, those who have received the Pfizer and Modena vaccines are given the third dose of the same vaccine. Those who are eligible to receive the vaccine can take the booster dose depending on the booking received from the primary health center.
In this time of the second outbreak of the Kovid epidemic, Asianet News urges everyone to wear masks, sanitize, maintain social distance and be vaccinated. Together we can defeat the epidemic. #BreakTheChain #ANCares #IndiaFightsCorona
