TRIPOLI: Libya officially launched its coronavirus vaccination campaign on Saturday, starting with Prime Minister Abdelhamid Dbeibah, health authorities in the conflict-hit nation said.
“The national vaccination campaign against Covid-19 has been launched at the CDC headquarters” on Tripoli’s outskirts, said Badreddine al-Najjar, head of Libya’s Centre for Disease Control.
After the vaccination of Dbeibah, who heads a newly established Government of National Unity, Health Minister Ali al-Zenati was next to receive a jab, an AFP journalist said.
Dbeibah urged fellow citizens to register online for their own vaccinations.
