Oman: Booster COVID vaccines to be administered to 18-plus population

Oman’s 18-plus population would now be allowed to book boosters in a bid to counter the spread of the Omicron COVID-19 variant.

The Ministry of Health will announce the target segments and the action plan at a later stage. Epidemiological reports and analyses about the situation in the Sultanate of Oman point to a minor increase in positive cases, with hospitalizations and intensive care cases maintaining low rates.
