Centres designated to administer booster COVID-19 shots will open Thursday October 7, health minister said Wednesday.

In an opening ceremony of the third Dental Implants National Programme, Minister of Health Feras Hawari urged people who have not had their COVID-19 vaccine yet to go and take it. He emphasised the importance of abiding by the safety measures amidst a spike in cases.

Hawari called on medical staff whose vaccination exceeded six months, those over 60 and vulnerable groups to seek a booster shot.

The national COVID-19 response commission recommended on September 29 administering a booster shot.
