Epidemics Committee recommends taking third dose 3 months after second

The Epidemics Committee recommended, in a meeting held on Tuesday, giving the third dose of COVID-19 vaccine to those who spent at least 3 months after receiving the second dose.

The committee also agreed to administer the vaccine to those interested in the age group 5-11 years, but without any obligation to do so.

The committee also recommended a PCR test be given every 72 hours for drivers who go through border crossings, provided that the test is conducted inside the country.
