Kazakhstan launches COVID-19 booster campaign

A campaign to revaccinate the population against coronavirus has begun in Kazakhstan. It will take place in two stages. First, medical workers, teachers, staff of medical-social and closed children's institutions, as well as law enforcement officers will be able to receive the third dose of the covid drug. People over the age 60 and those with a negative antibody test will be allowed to revaccinate as well. According to Kazakh Ministry of Health, at the first stage it is planned to vaccinate with a booster dose almost a million Kazakh citizens. At the second - more than six million.
