KUWAIT CITY, May 26: Within the framework of continuous efforts to enhance community immunity, the field vaccination campaigns continue. Yesterday, medical and nursing teams were able to vaccinate more than 2,300 workers, administrators and officials in health institutes, men’s barbershops and women’s salons, reports Al-Qabas daily. The Ministry of Health employees have exerted great efforts to complete the vaccination process that took place inside the Ahmed Al-Adwani School building in Adailiya, and salons and health institutes workers continued from eight in the morning until eight in the evening, in spite of severe crowding, vaccinations were given smoothly and quickly.

The Salons Union contributed to the completion of the vaccination process, and used a security and guard company to organize the entry of those registered with the vaccination platform. Health employees dealt with the extended queues of workers who came early. A health source said a group of 70 people were allowed to enter the hall at one time. Civil defense volunteers participated in the organizational efforts, as well as security men, who worked to control the situation during the influx of workers.
