He added that as of Tuesday morning, about 12,000 people had booked for a third dose on the COVID-19 immunisation platform.
"As of this morning, on the platform where the third dose can be booked, about 12,000 people have booked an appointment for the vaccination. Our piece of advice and suggestion is for people who have not yet got vaccinated to get vaccinated," said the minister, Agerpres informs.
