Kuwait Vaccination Centers Are Operating Under The Highest Safety Standards

The World Health Organisation (WHO) commended on Thursday the Kuwaiti government’s COVID-19 vaccination arrangements as operating under the “highest safety standards.” “I am genuinely impressed with the efficient organization of the vaccination centers and commitment of the staff,” WHO representative in Kuwait Dr Assad Hafeez said during a visit to two such facilities, accompanied by another two regional WHO officials. “I am thankful for their help in vaccination while applying the highest level of professionalism to ensure the safety and efficacy of vaccines,” added Dr Hafeez in a statement by WHO.

The WHO representative’s visits extended to the Kuwait International Fair centre in Mishref, which has been offering free vaccinations to nationals and expatriates alike since December 2020, alongside the Sheikh Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah Causeway drive-in center, introduced in May, this year. Both makeshift centres have the capacity to innoculate a combined number of over 30,000 people a day, operating under government COVID-19 regulations, approved by WHO. WHO went on to describe the centres as being “comparable to any other such facility around the globe,” pointing out the leadership of Health Minister Dr. Bassel Al-Sabah on the matter.
