The Ministry of Health has urged residents to obey all Covid-19 protocols as vaccinated individuals could also get infected with the virus and infect other persons.
Minister of Health, Osagie Ehanire made this known during a meeting on covid-19 in Edo state on Saturday.
He stated that the most reliable tool to protect ourselves and our families, remains first, compliance with the now established public health measures, and secondly, the delivery of vaccines to citizens.
He also said workers and the public, who are in close settings like NYSC camps, hospitals, offices and hostels, are particularly exposed and must be a priority for vaccination.
He furthermore, pleaded with elders across the country to endorse COVID-19 vaccination and encourage citizens to get vaccinated.
