Jamaica will this weekend operate another in its series of vaccination blitz activities, as part of efforts to get 65 per cent of the population protected from COVID-19 by March 2022.
As at 4:00 pm Friday, some 505,781 doses of vaccine had been administered here.
Of that number, 363,941 were first doses and 139,463 were second doses.
The remainder were single doses.
COVID-19 vaccinations began in March this year.
Jamaicans are encouraged to make their vaccination appointments online at www.moh.gov.jm [2] or by calling the Vaccination Call Centre at 888-ONE-LOVE (888-663-5683).
They should visit their vaccination site with a government-issued identification or a letter from the Justice of the Peace.
Those due a second dose will also need to take their vaccination card.
