PHILIPSBURG: - Minister Ottley along with VMT and the Ministry of VSA has set up extra community vaccination pop-ups and is urging all students who are going abroad in the pursuit of higher studies to come out on July 9th and 10th 2021, to receive their first or second shot of the Pfizer vaccine. This decision should give students some relief as this is the last week that persons can receive their first shot of the Pfizer Vaccine. In addition, the vaccination pop-up is for everyone and all are being encouraged to come out.
The vaccination for COVID-19 is a pre-condition for many higher education institutions worldwide, such as in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Europe, and others. This decision will greatly benefit students, as it will provide them with an opportunity to travel abroad with ease to pursue higher studies and at the same time ensure they are protected against this very dangerous virus.
