Coronavirus: Hundreds of UAE pupils inoculated in school vaccination drives

Some UAE private schools have started vaccination drives to ensure pupils aged 16 and above receive the Covid-19 shot.

School leaders believe immunising pupils is key to building a safe environment and helping pupils feel secure as they prepare for university.

It is not clear how many in total have received a jab but many schools have started to roll out vaccination drives.
