Health Protection Agency (HPA) has opened bookings to get the first dose of Covishield COVID-19 vaccine for those who got their first dose back in April.

The COVID-19 vaccination program in the Maldives was launched with Covishield vaccine.

HPA said that vaccination appointments can be booked via book.hoa.gov.mv for the second dose of the vaccine.

Failure to show up at the appointed time would cancel the booking, according to the HPA, and those who need assistance making the appointment may contact 1676 for assistance.
