The Ministry of Education and Higher Education issued a circular today that the third booster dose of Covid-19 vaccine (Pfizer and Moderna) will be provided to all eligible educational and administrative staff and students in public and private schools without a prior appointment in all health centers.

The ministry explained in a circular sent to schools: “We kindly ask you to confirm that school staff and students from the age of 12 and above get the booster dose of the Covid-19 vaccine by going to any health center without a prior appointment, as soon as they are eligible to receive it.”

"This is important in providing a safe study environment for our students, and in coordination with the Primary Health Care Corporation to combat the spread of the coronavirus," it added.
