Chief Medical Officer of the Colombo Municipal Council Dr. Ruwan Wijayamuni says all COVID-related fatalities reported within Colombo Municipal Council limits last month were individuals who had not received the booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Speaking during a media briefing at the Health Promotion Bureau Dr. Ruwan Wijayamuni said they were either unvaccinated, had only received one dose or had received the second dose over six or eight months ago and not received the booster dose.
He stressed therefore it is important that all persons obtain the booster dose.
