“Our advice, really, is to say that the vaccine has been shown to be safe, it s been shown to be effective, so you should not delay the vaccine on the account of Ramadan, it said.
Dr Salman
Traditional Ramadan customs should not be carried out as usual this year, he said.
“Ramadan is a wonderful time to spend with family and friends and in the mosque, during the night prayers, and so on, he said. But this year we will have to continue to be cautious, because even though people are getting the vaccine. Not enough people, not just in your city, your family, but in your country and even the world, have had the vaccine yet for us to say that we ve got enough herd immunity for us to go back to the way that we used to do things.”

LONDON: A mosque in Bradford, northern England, became the latest in the UK to open its doors as a community COVID-19 vaccination center on Thursday.
The center at Bradford Central Mosque is part of an initiative by the Council for Mosques in Bradford and local GPs to increase the number of people being inoculated in communities where so-called vaccine hesitancy is a cause for concern.
More than 100 people were vaccinated between 8.30 a.m. and 1.30 p.m. after the center opened on Thursday. It will run again next Thursday when a decision will be made whether to increase sessions according to demand and logistics.
