Our team will use another plan to manage lines and crowds at vaccination venues - Dr. Fong

Health Ministry's Permanent Secretary Dr. James Fong says the expiry for the new batch of COVID-19 vaccines are more friendly and the vaccination team is now coming up with another plan that will allow them to manage lines and establish a lot more COVID safe protocols.

While responding to questions regarding large crowds and people not following social distancing at the vaccination venues, Dr. Fong says it is a bit difficult because they are trying to get as many people vaccinated as possible.

He says there were some instances where the lines were not looking good and it also happened in Lautoka today where people were lining up to get their $90.

Everyone over 18 years of age can get registered for vaccination.

Dr. Fong says if people cannot get registered online, there is an option of face-to-face registration.
