Ministry of Health Launches COVID-19 Test And Vaccination Bus
In an attempt to tackle low vaccination rates and surging COVID-19 cases, the Ministry of Health’s vaccine committee has launched the COVID-19 Test and Vax Bus initiative.
The summer season has led to a massive surge in COVID-19 cases, and with the ongoing fuel crisis, this initiative aims at assisting those living in towns with low vaccination rates and high infection rates. The bus also provides COVID-19 testing for anyone suspecting infection.
The initiative hopes to accelerate the vaccination plan and make it more accessible to those unable to reach the vaccination centers. The committee has yet to announce a schedule.
