Written by on 7 December 2021
The Ministry of Health has approved vaccinations against Covid-19 for children aged 5 and over.
During a meeting of the Public Health Commission, it was agreed that the vaccination drive for those aged below 12 would begin on the 15th December.
Officials said the planned vaccination drive would help reduce transmission through family groups, as well as to lessen the risk of long-Covid in children.
Almost 90% of the population aged over 12 has been vaccinated, with 76 million doses administered – 5 million of those booster shots.
