STORYLINE
The Ministry of Health began today vaccinating its population against coronavirus, starting with health and medical teams working in intensive care units in centers and hospitals for treating virus patients as the first batch of the vaccines started to arrive in Palestine.
Yesterday, the Ministry of Health announced that it had received 2000 doses of the Moderna vaccine, stressing that the priority for receiving coronavirus vaccinations is for health sector crews because they are the ones most in contact with corona patients, and the most at risk of getting infected with the disease.
The ministry said that the second group that will receive the vaccine is the elderly who are over 60 years old and those with chronic diseases because they are the most vulnerable to the disease and the more likely to develop serious symptoms.
With the arrival of the first batch of coronavirus vaccine, Palestine begins vaccinating its population
