VACCINATION CENTER CONTINUES TO RECEIVE KUWAITIS AND EXPATS IN HUGE NUMBERS

  • 30/05/2022

Kuwait City: Although the Corona epidemic continues to show positive signs, vaccination centres have received thousands of citizens and residents in recent weeks, with 17,000 reportedly receiving the second dose in 37 days from April 19 to May 26, and more than 56 thousand receiving the third booster dose during the same period. 


According to the sources, the country's general epidemiological conditions and indicators of the Corona virus have stabilised following the removal of epidemic-related restrictions and the resumption of commercial, social, cultural, and other activities, with the increase in health awareness and the national vaccination campaign, which was launched in late December 2020, playing a significant role in the local decline of the repercussions of the Covid-19 pandemic. 

The sources indicated that the proportion of those receiving the two doses out of the total population eligible for vaccination reached 84.3 percent, pointing at the same time that today (Sunday) those who wish to visit the Al-Ahmadi health areas will be received at the Fintas Health Center instead of the health facilities, for those who wish to receive doses of Covid 19 vaccines, noting that this is due to the low rate and volume of turnout. And about the latest statistics of “Corona” locally, Kuwait recorded 53 infections on May 21, with one case in intensive care, and 4 in the wards designated for virus patients, as well as no deaths from Corona complications were recorded, as the daily infection rate for the number of swabs was 3 percent with a cure rate of 99.5%.
