COVID Vaccination for 50-Year-Olds Is Now Started!!
As per the government’s plan, the COVID vaccination for senior citizens is in the process. The first phase covered the citizens aging 65 years and plus. However, soon after the first phase, NCOC allowed vaccination for those aging 60 – 64 years. While most of the senior citizens in the country are receiving vaccines on daily basis, the time has now come to get the COVID vaccine for 50-year-olds in the country. Keeping in view the ongoing alarming COVID situation in the region, it is highly advisable to register and receive the vaccination as soon as possible.
Here, we have added complete details and instructions for you to get registered and vaccinated if you are eligible for this age group.
Instructions For Vaccine Registration
If you or any of your family members are eligible for this age group, you can register by sending an SMS with your CNIC number (13 digits without spaces and dashes) to 1166 from any mobile network.
You can also log on to nims.nadra.gov.pk to register yourself.
Confirmation Message
After registering yourself, you will receive a confirmation SMS. Once you receive this message, it means that you are officially registered for the vaccine based on your eligibility.
