MoPH has attributed the success of the country’s COVID-19 vaccination program to the overwhelming support of the community.
The Ministry has, however, noted that a small number of eligible people have still not accepted their invitation to get vaccinated.
The Ministry urged unvaccinated, eligible people to act now and get themselves vaccinated, particularly in light of the delta variant that poses a greater threat to people not just in Qatar but also around the world.
