Citizens over 18 to be able to get second booster dose against coronavirus

Citizens over the age of 18 will be able to receive the second booster dose of the anti-coronavirus vaccine.

The Immunization Council issued the above recommendation and it will come into effect in a few days when the relevant order is published.

As allergist-immunologist Bidzina Kulumbegov told InterPressNews, the second booster dose can be given to citizens aged 18 and older, regardless of their medical condition.

The second booster shot had only been intended for citizens over 50 years old.
