COVID-19 Vaccination Program Expanded to Include Teenagers

The government has announced that the COVID-19 vaccination program will now include teenagers aged 12 to 17 years old. This decision comes after recent studies have shown that vaccinating teenagers can help reduce the spread of the virus and protect vulnerable populations.

Teenagers will receive the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, which has been approved for emergency use in this age group. The vaccine will be administered in two doses, with the second dose given 3 weeks after the first.

Parents are encouraged to schedule vaccination appointments for their teenage children as soon as possible. Vaccination centers across the country are prepared to accommodate this new age group and ensure a smooth vaccination process.
