Vaccine hesitency is “very limited” in Malta with the vast majority of those eligible for inoculation taking the jab, public health chief Charmaine Gauci said on Friday.
“We re doing very well when it comes to uptake,” Gauci said in response to a question during her weekly COVID-19 briefing, noting that Malta had a very good track record when it comes to uptake of other vaccines, too. People understand the need to take the vaccine, she said. Gauci did not provide any figures concerning vaccine uptake or refusal.
Just under 265,000 vaccine doses have been administered so far, with more than 80,000 people fully vaccinated. Authorities are currently vaccinating people aged 50 to 59, with anyone aged 60 or older who has yet to receive a vaccination appointment urged to contact a helpline by dialling 145.
