The Gibraltar Health Authority (GHA) has confirmed that a very small number of doses of the Oxford- AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine were received from the UK a few weeks ago. These doses were allocated only to individuals with multiple medication allergies who were assessed by the clinical teams and considered more suitable to receive this particular vaccine.
The Government says it is deeply saddened to confirm the loss of a resident of Gibraltar to COVID-19. The total number of deaths related to COVID-19 in Gibraltar is now 92.
The GSD has called upon Government to issue full detailed information and clear guidelines in respect of all procedures required to be undertaken by University Students who wish to avail themselves of the recently announced COVID-19 Vaccination Programme for Gibraltar’s University Students.
Gibraltar Cultural Services, on behalf of the Ministry of Culture, will be celebrating World Book Day 2021 with several initiatives and online offerings.
