*No Need For Mass Booster Shots - WHO* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?yr The World Health Organisation (WHO) says it is not necessary to administer COVID-19 vaccine booster shots for the whole population as a way of providing greater protection against Omicron. Zimbabwe recently directed all frontline workers and people with chronic diseases to get COVID-19 booster shots with immediate effect to protect them against the Omicron variant. ---------- Pindula is best experienced with the Android App. *Download APK here:* https://zero.pindula.co.zw/media/apps/apks/pindula23.apk _On Econet, Pindula does NOT use your data_ ---------- World Health Organisation head of emergencies programme, Michael Ryan said there is no evidence that shows booster shots are needed by the entire population. He said: > Right now, there is no evidence that I am aware of that suggests that boosting the entire population is going to necessarily provide greater protection for otherwise healthier individuals against hospitalisation and death. > Otherwise, the real risk of severe disease hospitalisation and death lies in particularly vulnerable individuals who require protection against the variants of COVID-19. In countries in the Northern Hemisphere, particularly in Europe, governments have recommended booster shots for their citizens who are fully vaccinated. Zimbabwe has experienced a surge in new coronavirus infections in recent days. Cases rose from 255 on Monday last week, 399 on Tuesday and 712 on Wednesday. On Thursday, the country recorded 1 042 new cases, 1 062 on Friday and 1 082 on Saturday. On Sunday, new cases fell to 523 because fewer people were tested (2 500), with the test positivity at 21.0%, up from 15.2% on Saturday. *More: NewsDay* itel A50 now available on Pindula at $84 64GB storage, 2GB RAM. _ideal for light usage_ _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
