Caretaker Minister of Information, Manal Abdel Samad Najd, on Wednesday addressed a letter to Caretaker Health Minister, Hamad Hassan, which includes lists of journalist syndicates who wish to receive the Covid-19 vaccine and whose number has reached 2,846 people.
The Minister of Information will coordinate with the Minister of Health during the next phase to ensure that the Ministry of Health is able to provide the needed number of vaccines. However, if the aforementioned plan is not possible, then Abdel Samad will ask of media institutions to set priorities among their staffers based on the risks they might be exposed to while performing their journalist tasks.
