Dubai begins administering Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine
Saudi Arabia and Israel have also approved the American-German vaccine.
Dubai began a vaccination campaign against COVID-19 on Wednesday. The United Arab Emirates has already rolled out some vaccines to fight the coronavirus.
The Dubai Health Authority began administering the vaccine made by Pfizer and BioNTech. The process will take place in four stages: The first group to receive the vaccine will be Emirati citizens or residents who are 60 or older and those with chronic illnesses. Front line medical workers will receive the vaccine next, followed by workers in “vital sectors.” The final group will be anyone else who wishes to receive the vaccine, the state-run Emirates News Agency reported.
