Vaccination centres to open on third day of Eid

The National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) has decided to close vaccination centres on the first two days of Eidul Fitr instead of the three days as was being considered earlier, benefitting at least 200,000 people.

An official of the Ministry of National Health Services, requesting not to be named, said earlier it was being considered to close the centres on the first three days of Eid.

“However as around 200,000 people are being vaccinated every day, it was therefore decided to reduce the holidays and call the healthcare workers to the vaccination centres on the third day. This decision will benefit around 200,000 people,” he said.
