Qatar has administered more than 100,000 COVID-19 booster vaccines so far, the Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) has announced.

The ministry said a total of 105,792 COVID-19 booster vaccines have safely been administered in Qatar till date.

It added the Primary Health Care Corporation (PHCC) is directly contacting eligible people to set an appointment for their COVID-19 booster vaccine.

“Anyone who had their second COVID-19 vaccine dose more than 6 months ago is eligible for a booster vaccine.  If you are eligible and have not yet been contacted, call the PHCC hotline on 4027 7077,” the MoPH said.

The MoPH said clinical evidence shows the protective immunity from the first two vaccine doses begins to decline after six months and booster vaccines increase immunity and provide long-term protection.
