Stakeholders in the travel and tourism sector are supporting health experts in their call for community members to take the booster dose, an industry official has stressed, citing the importance of educating tourists on Covid-19, particularly the Omicron variant.
“We all are morally responsible for the safety of our travelers, hence we have to educate them about the Covid-19 booster vaccination, which is recommended by the Ministry of Public Health’s (MoPH),” Tawfeeq Travel Group CEO Rehan Ali Syed told Gulf Times Tuesday.
He stressed: “I completely endorse and urge the same to all citizens and residents to take the flu shot along with the booster dose. We have to promote health and safety as a priority amongst all in Qatar. As time passes, vaccinated people become less protected, which is why doctors are asking people to get a booster dose.”
Syed also cautioned the public to verify reports, especially those circulating on social media to avoid creating panic and misinformation.
