Bahrain is committed to providing vaccinations for all

The National Medical Taskforce for Combating the Coronavirus (COVID-19) yesterday held a press conference at the Crown Prince Centre for Training and Medical Research at the Bahrain Defence Force Hospital, to provide an update on the Kingdom’s COVID-19 response.

In the press conference, it was reiterated that Bahrain is committed to providing vaccinations for all, reassuring registered patients that they will receive their doses in accordance with vaccination stocks.

The elderly, and those with chronic diseases, who wish to get vaccinated are advised to register by calling 444, visiting the website healthalert.gov.bh or registering via the “BeAware” application.

Discussing the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, it was noted that the shipment of vaccines manufactured by Pfizer-BioNTec, which was supposed to arrive in January, has been rescheduled due to production and supply processes on the manufacturers side. However, the rescheduled vaccine shipments will not affect citizens and residents receiving the second dose of the vaccine, according to current scheduled dates.
