It is being stressed by the Health Ministry that if you plan to line-up to get vaccinated after midday, you have to make sure that you are at the vaccination site by 1.30pm so you can be served on that day.

This is because COVID-19 vaccination venues close at 3pm daily.

Some people are concerned that they were turned away from the Albert Part drive-through vaccination site after waiting in the queue for two hours.

They were asked to leave as health officials would only be administering the vaccine to individuals only until a certain point in the queue. The Health Ministry says the COVID-19 booster dose campaign will be conducted until doses are utilized in the existing roll-out phase.

More booster doses are scheduled to arrive in the country by the end of this month.

The COVID-19 vaccination campaign for adults continues today.

Vaccination sites are open from 9am to 3pm.
