Saudi Arabia is still recording an increase in COVID-19 infections, with some governorates registering particular surge, said Mohammed Al-Abd Al-Aali, spokesperson for the Ministry of Health.

 

During the daily briefing about COVID-19 updates, the official added that the confirmed infections curve is passing through a “very critical” phase, which should be accompanied with more alertness and vigilance.

 

Furthermore, getting the vaccine and following the precautionary measures are key for beating the pandemic, said Al-Abdl Al-Aali.

 

He noted that vaccination is now available across the Kingdom, with the number of those administered the vaccine reaching 541,411.

 

The official also stressed that those who been vaccinated should continue to adopt the precautionary steps, as their immunity will take time to reach the required levels. He indicated that the vaccination can be applied through the 'Sehati' app.
