The Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) has clarified that the social media post being circulated online about the possibility of obtaining COVID-19 vaccination for everyone who wishes to go to the vaccination centre at the Qatar National Convention Center is not true.

وزارة الصحة العامة :
لا صحة لما يتم تداوله حول إمكانية الحصول على تطعيم كوفيد-19 لكل من يرغب بالتوجه لمركز التطعيم في مركز قطر الوطني للمؤتمرات.
وتؤكد وزارة الصحة أنه لضمان سلامة المجتمع وسير عملية التطعيم بصورة سلسة وفعالة، سيتم إرسال الدعوات للحصول على التطعيم بشكل تدريجي وعلى pic.twitter.com/EEg9nJSanY

The Ministry also affirmed that invitations will be sent gradually to obtain the vaccinations. As per the decision, the targeted group will get an SMS inviting them to come to the vaccination centre on specific dates. The vaccine will only be given to those who have received an invitation. Others are required to wait until they receive an invitation via SMS.

The Ministry also urged all the community members to obtain news and information from official sources, through the Ministry’s website, and through its social media accounts.
