A pop-up COVID-19 vaccination centre for children aged 12+ will open in Abu Dhabi next week.
The facility at Yas Mall will operate for five days (August 3-7) from 12:00 pm to 8:00 pm.
The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine will be administered as part of efforts to stop the spread of the virus and support the safe return to school for the next academic year.
University students can also get the jab at the new centre.
In collaboration with the Department of Health - Abu Dhabi, Abu Dhabi Public Health Center, Mubadala Health and Yas Mall, we have organized a pop-up vaccination center for all students aged 12+, including university students.
